The presence of a clinical condition characterised by a marked non\u2010selective proteinuria, which may correlate with reduced drug concentration, has raised doubts about the most appropriate anticoagulant therapeutic choice. A 34\u2010year\u2010old male patient presented to the emergency department with dyspnea, chest pain and hypotension. Two days prior, the patient had undergone a renal biopsy for a recent NS finding. An urgent CT scan revealed a right pulmonary embolism and inferior left renal vein thrombus, prompting immediate anticoagulant therapy. The patient was discharged on rivaroxaban. The presence of NS and the consequent concern regarding potential decreased drug concentration led us to monitor rivaroxaban plasma concentrations during the treatment period. Monitoring showed a strong correlation between the extent of proteinuria and the drug concentration. At the 4\u2010month follow\u2010up after discharge from the hospital, the patient was performing normal daily activities without limitations, and angio\u2010CT showed complete resolution of renal and pulmonary thrombotic formations. In this clinical case, pulmonary embolism associated with renal vein thrombosis in a patient with a recent diagnosis of NS was managed with rivaroxaban with a good clinical outcome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/rcr2.70234","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,10]],"date-time":"2025-06-10T00:30:05Z","timestamp":1749515405000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Managing Pulmonary Embolism Associated With Renal Vein Thrombosis During Nephrotic Syndrome: Usefulness of Rivaroxaban Level Monitoring"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0419-196X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gabriele","family":"De Masi De Luca","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Life, Health and Environmental Science University of L'Aquila  L'Aquila Italy"},{"name":"Cardiology Unit Card. \u201cG.
