Abstract

Recently, an association was reported between a form of hemolytic-uremic syndrome and the use of adjuvant chemotherapy with mitomycin C and 5-fluorouracil. Our report presents the clinical course of a patient with this syndrome along with detailed renal pathological studies (including electron and immunofluorescence microscopy). This information is not available for most previous reports.
