Abstract EN
The cases of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) proceeded by diarrhea are commonly labeled as D + HUS.
However, with severe renal failure or with delayed recovery, such cases should be evaluated for rarer associations like Factor H (FH), I and CD 46 deficiency or mutations.
We report such a presentation of a young boy who initially came with diarrhea and had features of HUS with delayed renal recovery.
He later turned out to have anti-FH antibody-related HUS.
