  • Title: Plasmapheresis and antiplatelet agents in the treatment of the hemolytic uremic syndrome secondary to mitomycin.
    Author: Chow S, Roscoe J, Cattran DC.
    Journal: Am J Kidney Dis; 1986 May; 7(5):407-12. PubMed ID: 3085480.
    Abstract:
    Four patients with the hemolytic uremic syndrome secondary to mitomycin therapy were treated with intense plasmapheresis and antiplatelet agents. All four patients had a hematologic response and three had slow, but steady, improvement in renal function. These results suggest an important role for these agents in mitomycin-induced hemolytic uremic syndrome.
