Dialysis may be needed for renal vein thrombosis patients who experience extensive kidney damage and renal failure. It’s an artificial way to carry out the responsibilities of the kidney. A machine is used to filter and purify the blood. This is a temporary treatment to help kidneys function normally and keep the body in balance. This process removes the toxins, salt, and excess water from the blood so they don’t accumulate in the body. It also works to maintain safe levels of specific chemicals like potassium and helps control blood pressure. This process is also referred to as renal replacement therapy. Dialysis is also used for patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.
