Shiga toxin-producing, enteroaggregative Escherichia coli was responsible for the 2011 outbreak of haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS). The present single-centre, observational study describes the 1-year course of the disease with an emphasis on kidney function. Outcome data after 1 year are associated with treatment and patient characteristics at onset of HUS.
