RESUMEN El síndrome urémico hemolítico (SUH) es una entidad caracterizada por la tríada de insuficiencia renal aguda, anemia hemolítica no inmune y trombocitopenia. Se distinguen 2 tipos: el SUH típico o D (+) asociado a toxina Shiga y el atípico o D(-) entre los que se encuentra el SUH asociado a neumococo. Ésta es una patología poco común con alta morbimortalidad. Se presenta el caso clínico de un lactante que desarrolló un SUH asociado a neumococo en el marco de enfermedad neumocóccica invasiva
