Abstract
A 48-year-old woman was diagnosed with right renal vein thrombosis (RV T) 2 weeks after a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The patient had none of the major risk factors for RVT or deep vein thrombosis. She was tre ated with long-term anticoagulation. Complete dissolution of the throm bi was reached 1 month after diagnosis.
