RESUMEN
Las hormonas tiroideas tienen acciones renales directas en conjunto con efectos dinámicos y cardiovasculares que influyen en la función renal. Cuadros de hipotiroidismo con enfermedad renal son una combinación peculiar y poco descrita, es por ello que el propósito de este trabajo es exponer el caso de dos pacientes con síndrome nefrótico asociado a hipotiroidismo severo, los cuales presentaron disminución de la proteinuria y casi normalización de función renal luego de iniciar tratamiento de reemplazo con levotiroxina.
