Although Campylobacter, Salmonella type D, and C difficile may cause acute gastroenteritis with hematochezia, they are not associated with HUS. Campylobacter are the most common cause of acute bacterial gastroenteritis in the developed world, and nearly 50% of all Salmonella infections in the United States are caused by Salmonella serotypes B, D, and Newport. C difficile is a common cause of antibiotic-associated enterocolitis, and the organism has been linked to exacerbations of inflammatory bowel disease. Although S dysenteriae (type 1) has been associated with HUS, the incidence of this disorder is far greater following infection with either E coli O157:H7 or another STEC species.
