Purpose of Review  We review the pathophysiology of Shiga-Toxin Enteropathogenic–Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (STEC-HUS), strategies to ameliorate or prevent evolution of STEC-HUS, management and the improved recognition of long-term adverse outcomes.    Recent Findings  Following on from the preclinical evidence of a role for the complement system in STEC-HUS, the use of complement blocking agents has been the major focus of most recent clinical research. Novel therapies to prevent or lessen HUS have yet to enter the clinical arena. The long-term outcomes of STEC-HUS, similarly to other causes of AKI, are not as benign as previously thought.    Summary  Optimizing supportive care in STEC-HUS is the only current recommended treatment. The administration of early isotonic fluids may reduce the severity and duration of STEC-HUS. The role of complement blockade in the management of STEC-HUS remains unclear. The long-term sequelae from STEC-HUS are significant and patients with apparent full renal recovery remain at risk.
