Thrombocytopenia is not mandatory to diagnose haemolytic and uremic syndrome

BMC Nephrology, 2013
Background Hemolytic and uremic syndrome (HUS) diagnosis involves association of non immune hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal failure. HUS without thrombocytopenia has been observed, we call it partial HUS.

Pathogenic role of inflammatory response during Shiga toxin-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS)

Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, West), 2018
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is defined as a triad of noninmune microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury. The most frequent presentation is secondary to Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections,
