Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare, genetic disease in which blood clots in the small blood vessels of the kidneys lead to symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, vomiting, hemolytic anemia (destruction of red blood cells), impaired kidney function, and thrombocytopenia (low platelet counts).

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare genetic disease that results in the formation of blood clots in the small blood vessels of the kidneys.

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare disease in which blood clots are formed in the small blood vessels of the kidneys, leading to symptoms such as hemolytic anemia — destruction of red blood cells — thrombocytopenia, or a low platelet count, and…

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is an extremely rare disease that is characterized by the formation of blood clots in the small blood vessels of the kidneys. It is marked by the development in patients of hemolytic anemia (destruction of red blood cells), thrombocytopenia (low platelet count), and…

The symptoms of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) — ranging from fatigue, nausea and vomiting to impaired kidney function and low platelet counts — can cause considerable stress in patients, especially if not attended to diligently. aHUS is a rare disease in which blood clots form in the…
