ABOUT NEUROPSYCHIATRIC MANIFESTATIONS

H.U.S. is distinguished from T.T.P by the absence of neurological symptoms and the prominence of acute renal failure.
Recent studies, however, have tended to blur these clinical distinctions. Many adult patients with "TTP" lack one or more of the five criteria and patients with "HUS" have fewer neurological dysfunction.
