Abstract
Atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) characterized by genetic or acquired deregulation of alternative complement pathway with the clinical triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury (AKI). Within precipitating biological factors, several pathogens were identified. To date, only a few cases of aHUS relapses triggered by COVID-19 have been reported.
