We report a hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) case due to Stx2f-producing E. coli illustrating the diagnostic difficulty of this Shiga-toxin subtype. Clinicians should be aware of limits of certain rapid molecular panels that are increasingly being used and may play a role in underestimating the global burden of such infections.
我们报告了一例由 Stx2f 产毒大肠杆菌引起的溶血尿毒综合征（HUS）病例，说明了这种志贺毒素亚型的诊断难度。临床医生应该意识到某些快速分子检测试剂盒的局限性，这些试剂盒越来越多地被使用，并可能在低估此类感染的全球负担方面发挥作用。
