Abstract:
Sixty-one patients with typical postdiarrhea hemolytic-uremic syndrome were retrospectively examined to determine factors influencing the prognosis. A poorer prognosis was found in younger patients, in those with an elevated white blood cell count on admission, and in those with a prolonged duration of elevated white blood cell count, thrombocytopenia, and anuria.
