COVID-19: A Rare Cause of Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome.

Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a multisystemic condition characterized by a triad of acute renal failure, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, and thrombocytopenia. HUS can be classified as atypical or typical, depending upon its association with the Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). Approximately 90-95% of cases are classified as typical, while only 5-10% of cases are atypical.

A Case of Diastematomyelia Presenting With Minimal Neurologic Deficits in a Middle-Aged Patient.

Diastematomyelia is a rare congenital deformity of the spine in which the spinal cord is split into two hemicords along the sagittal plane. This condition belongs to the group of spinal dysraphisms, is more common in females, and is usually diagnosed prenatally or during childhood; rarely is it diagnosed in adults. We report a male patient in his 50s in which diastematomyelia of the thoracic spine was incidentally encountered after receiving a CT scan of the chest for shortness of breath.
