Aside from the occasional flank or lower back pain caused by a sudden clot in the major<unk> s to the kidneys,<unk>  produces few symptoms. Some patients may not display any symptoms while other patients may experience bloody urine, decrease in urine output, edema and worsening proteinuria. Usually the diagnoses of<unk>  is first made when a nephrotic syndrome patient experiences a pulmonary embolism or a sudden decrease in kidney function or kidney failure. These symptoms may vary in duration since a blood clot can resolve itself, but precautions should be taken to prevent the migration of the clot to other parts of the body. The most severe complication of<unk>  is a pulmonary embolism, caused by a clot, also called a thrombus, that originates from the<unk> <unk>  or any other<unk>  in the body and migrates to the pulmonary artery. A pulmonary embolism is a serious condition because; it can damage the lungs due to pulmonary hypertension and cause low blood oxygen, damaging other organs in the body. This condition can cause death if left untreated; about 30% percent of patients who have a pulmonary embolism will die, usually within one hour. Infants and young children experiencing dehydration induced<unk> , may experience dehydration symptoms (dry mouth, low urine output, loss of skin turgidity) as while as vomiting, nausea and fever, and the usual<unk>  symptoms like flank pain, blood in the urine, anaemia, edema, enlarged kidneys and kidney failure.
