Rare Presentation of Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome in an Adult

Alhabhbeh, Ammar A., Fatima, Zainab, Thomas, Akesh, Cook, Christopher 01 September 2021 (has links)
Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) are disorders characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and microthrombi leading to organ dysfunction. Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare subtype of TMA mediated by complement dysregulation. We present a case of a 59-year-old female who presented with acute kidney injury and mild thrombocytopenia but with normal hemoglobin. We highlight the importance of prompt diagnosis of aHUS and initiating appropriate treatment with eculizumab.
