Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) commonly manifesting as acute kidney injury, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia and thrombocytopaenia. In the presence of end-stage kidney disease, the diagnosis of aHUS is more challenging. Refractory hypertension is a known manifestation of aHUS but the presence of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) may confound the diagnostic pathway.
