Nephrotic syndrome results in {{c1::hypoalbuminemia::lab finding}}, which manifests as {{c2::pitting edema}} on physical exam and {{c3::secondary}} hyperaldosteronism
Extra
- Also manifests as periorbital edema (thus can present clinically as a patient who thinks they are having an allergic reaction)
- Edema leads to a decreased effective circulating volume, causing a secondary hyperaldosteronism which leads to salt retention and exacerbating the edema (generated by decreased oncotic pressure)
- Also manifests as periorbital edema (thus can present clinically as a patient who thinks they are having an allergic reaction)
