Complement-Mediated Thrombotic Microangiopathy with 10 Years of Stable Renal Function After a Year-Long Treatment with Eculizumab with Coincidental Polycystic Kidney Disease.

BACKGROUND Complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (cTMA), is a genetic disease that results when an unchecked alternative complement pathway is triggered by an external factor, resulting in endothelial cell injury with microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure, though other organ systems may be involved. CASE REPORT A 5-year-old girl presented with non-bloody diarrhea, hemolysis, renal failure, and thrombocytopenia. She was negative for Shiga toxin.
