    Abstract:
    A 23-year old male patient had eight distinct episodes of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) between 8.5 and 15 years of age, five of them accompanied by hypocomplementemia. In the further course, severe hypertension, renal insufficiency as well as protein-losing enteropathy due to intestinal lymphangiectasia developed, whilst hypocomplementemia persisted. The association of recurrent HUS with hypocomplementemia and intestinal lymphangiectasia may represent a new association within a subgroup of the atypical HUS.
