Abstract
- We report an 8-year-old girl who presented with hemolytic–uremic syndrome (HUS) as the onset manifestation of acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). The patient was admitted to the hospital for renal failure, thrombocytopenia, and anemia during a HUS outbreak. She was discharged 2 weeks later with normal renal function. One month later the girl presented with clinical and laboratory signs consistent with a diagnosis of ALL. The short time interval between HUS and ALL suggests that HUS was probably an early manifestation of acute leukemia.
