Plasmatherapy in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2010Plasmatherapy has become empirically first-line treatment in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), although no prospective controlled trials have been conducted. Patients with mutations that induce complete or partial factor H (FH) quantitative deficiency may be controlled by plasma infusions (PI), but plasma exchanges appear more efficient than ...

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome
Current Opinion in Hematology, 2010The last few years revealed a molecular distinction between thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, a disease characterized by a lack of ADAMTS13 activity, and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), a disease of complement overactivation. Many different predisposing genetic factors resulting in complement overactivation have been described in aHUS ...

Atypical hemolytic uraemic syndrome
Medicina Clínica (English Edition), 2015The hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a clinical entity characterized by thrombocytopenia, non-immune hemolytic anemia and renal impairment. Kidney pathology shows thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) with endothelial cell injury leading to thrombotic occlusion of arterioles and capillaries.

Eculizumab for Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome in Pregnancy
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2013Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy often caused by mutations in complement genes. During pregnancy, disease outcome is poor both for mother and fetus. Since 2009, the humanized monoclonal antibody eculizumab has been successfully used in the treatment of atypical HUS in nonpregnant patients.A 26-year-old woman with

Skin Involvement in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2014Skin involvement in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is very uncommon and therefore often unrecognized as a specific symptom of aHUS. We describe 3 cases of patients with aHUS who developed skin lesions that completely recovered when disease-specific treatment was established.

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome in the Tunisian population
International Urology and Nephrology, 2010Hemolytic uremic syndrome consists of a triad of acquired hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia and renal failure.Our objectives were to determine epidemiology, clinical and laboratory characteristics of patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) to determine the relationship between the complement protein deficit and aHUS in the Tunisian ...
