How atypical can Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome be?
Key Clinical MessageA 24‐year‐old man with diarrhea found to have acute renal failure with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA). A diagnosis of hemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) was made. He was initiated on plasma exchange and hemodialysis. On day 6, he was started on eculizumab. His renal functions progressively improved.

ABSTRACT Aim Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) have revolutionized transplant medicine, improving allograft survival but posing challenges like calcineurin inhibitor‐induced nephrotoxicity (CNT). Acute CNT, often dose‐dependent, leads to vasoconstriction and acute kidney injury, with treatment focusing on CNI exposure reduction.

Complement inhibition (factor D, C3, C5, or C5aR1) blunts inflammation induced by Escherichia coli or Aspergillus fumigatus conidia in lepirudin‐treated whole blood. Inhibition decreases inflammatory markers, reduces anaphylatoxin receptor expression, and lowers cytokine production and phagocytic activity. Created in https://BioRender.com.
