ABSTRACT
Oral contraceptives cause a number of serious side effects in young woman. Prominent among these is an increased incidence of thromboembolic events. Although these thromboemboli almost invariably occur on the venous side of the circulation, there have been reports describing the occurrence of arterial thromboses. Spontaneous thrombosis of the renal artery is a rare event. When reported, it has usually superimposed on an underlying anatomic abnormality of the renal artery after trauma, or very rarely in the setting of systemic disease such as polycythemia vera or thromboangiitis obliterans. Since isolated renal artery thrombosis in the absence of these underlying conditions has been rarely described, wewish to bring attention to the diagnosis of this disorder in a young woman taking oral contraceptives and without any other predisposing abnormality.
