چکیده
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy defined by the triad of sudden onset hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury. We describe rare case atypical HUS secondary to pancreatitis with an unknown etiology in 20-year-old male who presented complaint nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain.

Background: Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a life-threatening and scarce disorder characterized by acute renal failure and disease, non-immune microangiopathic hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia, leading to end-stage renal failure or death, and consequently maybe accompanying by extra renal manifestations. Case report: We reported aHUS accompanied by autoimmune hemolytic anemi...
متن کاملAtypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
BACKGROUND Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare disease characterized by hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and renal dysfunction. It is a disease related to genetic mutations in the alternative complement pathway and has a distinct pathophysiology but is difficult to differentiate from other thrombotic microangiopathies. CASE REPORT We present a case of a 59-year-old female patient ...
متن کاملCase report - atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome triggered by influenza B
BACKGROUND Influenza A infections have been described to cause secondary hemolytic uremic syndrome and to trigger atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) in individuals with an underlying genetic complement dysregulation. To date, influenza B has not been reported to trigger aHUS. CASE PRESENTATION A 6-month-old boy presented with hemolytic uremic syndrome triggered by influenza B infection...
متن کاملAtypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure. The atypical form of HUS is a disease characterized by complement overactivation. Inherited defects in complement genes and acquired autoantibodies against complement regulatory proteins have been described. Incomplete penetrance of mutations in all predisposing genes is r...
متن کاملAtypical hemolytic uremic syndrome
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure. Most cases of aHUS are caused by uncontrolled complement activation due to genetic mutations in the alternative pathway of complement. More recently, mutations in the gene of coagulation system have also been identified in...
