Thromboembolic complication are often seen in patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS). A comprehensive study of haemostasis and fibrinolysis has been performed in a group of 39 patients with nephrotic syndrome. We have found increased level of fibrinogen, fibronectin, fibrin monomers, alfa 2 macroglobulin, protein C and C 1 esterase inhibitor, whereas level of alfa 2 antiplasmin, alfa 1 antitrypsin were decreased. Patients with thromboembolic complications had particularly low levels of antithrombin III and histidine rich glycoprotein.
