Abstract
- Spontaneous renal artery dissection without aortic dissection in normotensive patients is rarely reported. Spontaneous renal artery dissection is also an uncommon cause of renal infarction that occurs, though rarely, in patients with hypercoagulable states such as protein C and S deficiency. We report here a case of spontaneous renal artery dissection and renal infarction associated with protein C and S deficiency.
