Bilateral acute renal infarction secondary to methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase A1298C and PAI-1 mutation
We present this rare case of hyperhomocysteinemia due to a mutation in methylene-tetrahydrofolate-reductase (MTFHR) combined with plasminogen activator inhibitor deficiency, causing bilateral renal artery thrombosis. This case highlights the importance of genetic screening in individuals with a fami...
