The triad of this clinical syndrome is defined by: 1) Thrombotic or Microangiopathic Haemolytic Anaemia with schistocytes 2) Thrombocytopenia and 3) Acute Renal Failure (ARF) which can develop into Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). The aim of this article is to provide an editorial/ commentary on the Clinical Medicine versus Clinical Anatomy of HUS.
