Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli-Associated Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Advanced Ovarian Cancer: A Case Report

(STEC)-associated HUS. The patient developed severe oligo-anuric acute kidney injury (AKI), requiring hemodialysis and multiple transfusions. Early recognition, prompt supportive care, and multidisciplinary management were critical for stabilization and safe continuation of oncologic therapy. This case highlights the importance of considering STEC-HUS in immunocompromised adults presenting with TMA during oncologic chemotherapy.

Abstract

(STEC)-associated HUS. The patient developed severe oligo-anuric acute kidney injury (AKI), requiring hemodialysis and multiple transfusions. Early recognition, prompt supportive care, and multidisciplinary management were critical for stabilization and safe continuation of oncologic therapy. This case highlights the importance of considering STEC-HUS in immunocompromised adults presenting with TMA during oncologic chemotherapy.
