Stroke in a patient with hemolytic-uremic syndrome with a good outcome.
We report a child with HUS complicated by stupor, hemiparesis, expressive aphasia and focal seizures. CAT scan of the brain demonstrated 2 large cerebral non-hemorrhagic infarcts. Despite the severe neurological involvement the child eventually made a good recovery.
