Popis: The hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) typically presents in toddlers or older children after an episode of bloody diarrhea caused by Escherichia coli 0157:H7. However, numerous ’’atypical’’ presentations have been described, including familial cases. Here we describe what we believe to be the first report of familial HUS in a premature infant during the neonatal period.
