Abstract
The case of a 25-year-old diabetic female presenting with acute right main renal vein thrombosis associated with oral contraceptive usage is described. Rapid diagnosis with ultrasound and resolution of the thrombosis was accomplished with streptokinase. Ultrasound may be the diagnostic test of choice in selected patients with renal vein thrombosis. Streptokinase was an effective therapy in this case of acute renal vein thrombosis.Entities:
