The hypercoagulability of patients with nephrotic syndrome could be an important trigger for arterial and venous thrombotic events. Arterial thromboses are less frequent than venous thromboses and the most common locations are femoral arteries. The association of stroke and nephrotic syndrome is extremely rare. Here we report the case of a patient with stroke as first manifestation of nephrotic syndrome. Ischemic stroke can be the first manifestation of nephrotic syndrome and should be considered as a possible complication of the syndrome, when the commonest causes of ischemic stroke are excluded and especially in presence of pre-existing glomerular disease.
