Abstract
The association of pulmonary thromboembolism with nephrectomy is well documented in malignant conditions. However, the data for incidence of pulmonary thromboembolism following nephrectomy in nonmalignant conditions remains scarce. We report the first case of an incidence of pulmonary thromboembolism following nephrectomy in a patient with a nonfunctional kidney due to multiple renal calculi.Entities:
