The Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1995
HUS is the most common cause of acute renal failure in infants and young children and follows a diarrheal prodrome about 90% of the time. Persuasive evidence shows that virtually all of postdiarrheal cases are caused by EHEC infections, and that the great majority of cases in the United States are caused by the EHEC serotype O157:H7.
