Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Pulmonary embolism is a rare complication of nephrotic syndrome. We report the case history of a 30 year old man who presented with nephrotic syndrome and became acutely dyspnoeic with cyanosis and peripheral circulatory failure while on treatment. The clinical and ECG findings were strongly suggestive of acute pulmonary embolism.
