Plasmatherapy in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome [PDF]

open access: possibleSeminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2010
Plasmatherapy 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, 2010
The 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 ...

The hemolytic–uremic syndrome, which is characterized by nonimmune hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal impairment, occurs most frequently in young children. Most cases are secondary to infection with Escherichia coli O157:H7 and other Shiga-toxin–producing strains.

Eculizumab for Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome in Pregnancy

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2013
Atypical 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, 2014
Skin 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.
