A 75-year-old male was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia without maturation and was treated with combination chemotherapy. After the first remission-induction therapy, he reached complete remission. About one month after the first induction therapy, he was diagnosed with a complication of chemotherapy-related HUS (C-HUS). He gradually recovered from the C-HUS after the initiation of a plasma exchange. In conclusion, it seems that the anti-leukemic drugs might play an important role in the development of chemotherapy C-HUS.
