Abstract:
Haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) is one of the two forms of thrombotic microangiopathies and is characterized by the triad of microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopaenia, and acute renal failure. It has been associated with bacterial and viral infections as well as non-infective causes. We report a subject who presented with HUS associated with an influenza-like syndrome which was confirmed as an influenza A (H1N1) infection. There are reports of HUS associated with seasonal influenza, but there have been no reported cases of HUS after novel influenza A (H1N1) in the literature so far.
