Renal Vein Thrombosis in a Newborn: A Case Report with Emphasis on Pathological and Radiological Features

Abstract
A case of renal vein thrombosis in a newborn is presented. Trauma during pregnancy is suggested as an etiological factor. In contradistinction to most cases reported, the newborn showed no signs of acute illness except for a palpable abdominal mass. Surgical intervention was delayed for 10 mo., but this did not impair the infant''s growth and well-being.
