A patient with hemolytic uremic syndrome complicating chicken pox is described. At post mortem, the glomeruli showed diffuse capillary wall thickening and extensive wrinkling of the basement membrane with subendothelial deposition of granular material. Although a number of viruses and other infective agents have been implicated in its etiology, this appears to be the first report of an association between hemolytic uremic syndrome and chicken pox.
