Abstrakt: Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and hemolytic-uremic syndrome occurred 6 1/2 years apart in HLA-identical brothers. This unique occurrence supports the concept that the two disorders may be varieties of a basic disease process and suggests the possibility of an inherited predisposition for them.
