Adult-Onset Nephrotic Syndrome with Membranous Nephropathy Complicated by Right Renal Vein Thrombosis and Acute Pyelonephritis: A Case Report

Dr. Yash Anand Chordia

Abstract: Nephrotic syndrome in adults presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, particularly in the presence of thrombotic and infectious complications. We report a 31-year-old male with biopsy-proven membranous nephropathy who developed right renal vein thrombosis and acute pyelonephritis. CT imaging revealed thrombosis extending into the inferior vena cava along with features of pyelonephritis. The patient improved with anticoagulation, intravenous antibiotics, and supportive therapy. This case underscores the importance of early imaging and coordinated multidisciplinary management in complicated nephrotic syndrome.
