Hemolytic-uremic syndrome (GUS) characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, acute renal failure. The most common causative agent of the disease is E. coli, but other infections – streptococci, pneumococci, viruses can also cause disease. A variety of
options for the course of HUS, and most importantly, a different prognosis depending on the etiological factor,
divides the syndrome into several forms. One of them is typical HUS or postdiarrheal. This is the classic form of HUS,
it is found exclusively in young children (up to 3 years old)
