Pituitary hemorrhage in hemolytic uremic syndrome.
A 5-year-old girl with hemolytic uremic syndrome is reported with pituitary hemorrhage in the acute phase. Seizures, hemiplegia, and transient blindness were observed. These symptoms cannot be attributed to the pituitary hemorrhage; however, pituitary hemorrhage should be added to the list of neurologic lesions that can occur in hemolytic uremic syndrome.
