Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome with thrombomodulin anomaly – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/760759784

This is a disease characterised by haemolytic anaemia (anaemia caused by destruction of red blood cells), acute kidney failure (uraemia), and a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia). This diagnosis is with an anomaly of the integral membrane protein expressed on the surface of endothelial cells and serves as a cofactor for thrombin.
