Key Clinical Message Most children with nephrotic syndrome heal without any sequelae. However, rare life‐threatening complications such as thromboembolism may occur in pediatric nephrotic syndrome and should be considered in those with a new‐onset neurologic deficit. Abstract The thromboembolism (TE) as a complication of nephrotic syndrome (NS) is rare and serious, and may involve renal, cerebral, pulmonary, or peripheral venous and/or arterial thrombosis. Here, we describe a 4.5‐year‐old male with a history of nephrotic syndrome, who developed hemorrhagic stroke in the territory of middle cerebral artery (MCA).
