[Recurrent renal vein thrombosis in a premature infant. Doppler ultrasound diagnosis and follow-up].
Renal vein thrombosis (RVT) is a rare disorder in neonates. Early diagnosis is mandatory since immediate thrombolytic therapy favours prognosis. Our case report describes RVT demonstrated by Duplex Doppler Ultrasound. A possibly characteristic sequence of changes in the echogenicity of the renal parenchyma and in the Duplex Doppler flow pattern of the renal arteries could be found.
