Síndrome urémico hemolítico asociado a diarrea sin trombocitopenia

The prevalence of non-thrombocytopenic D+ HUS was 5.6% and most cases occurred with mild forms of the disease; however, the need for dialysis in one of them indicated that normalisation of platelet count is not always an accurate marker for disease remittance. Our results also confirm that the time of onset of D+ HUS in patients without thrombocytopenia is usually delayed with respect to the initial intestinal symptoms; thus, heightened diagnostic suspicion is necessary.
