OBJECTIVE To study the clinical profile of children with scrub typhus and its association with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. METHODS Children presenting with unexplained fever and multi-systemic involvement between May to December 2011 were tested for scrub typhus using IgM ELISA kits. Occurrence of Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in IgM positive cases of scrub typhus was studied. ...
Scrub typhus is caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi. Any delay in diagnosis can result in delayed treatment and severe complications, including secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, which is rare but potentially fatal. In this paper, the authors present 3 cases of secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with scrub typhus, successfully treated with chloramphenicol without ad...
INTRODUCTION Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is an immune-mediated syndrome that typically has a rapidly progressive course that can result in pancytopenia, coagulopathy, multi-system organ failure and death. CASE PRESENTATION A 57-year-old Caucasian woman was referred in fulminant hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, with fever, pancytopenia, splenomegaly, mental status changes and respira...
BACKGROUND Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a disease process characterized by unregulated hyperactivation of the immune system associated with multiorgan involvement and high mortality rates. Early recognition is crucial and a recently validated diagnostic schema, the H-Score, may facilitate diagnosis particularly in secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis cases. We present a patient...
Perforin gene (PRF1) mutations have been reported in 20-30% of patients with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL), an immune disorder of infancy and early childhood. Cytotoxic T and natural killer (NK) cell activities are remarkably reduced or ab-sent in FHL patients. We report the first cases of familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocy-tosis in an Iranian family with two siblings. E...
BACKGROUND This is the first documented case of a patient with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in association with coeliac disease. There was complete clinical and biochemical remission of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis following the introduction of a gluten-free diet. CASE PRESENTATION A 7-year-old white girl presented with fevers and maculopapular rash with a recent history of tonsil...
hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (hlh) is a syndrome of pathologic immune activation, occurring as either a familial disorder or a sporadic condition, in association with a variety of triggers. this article will introduce a neonate with hlh in iran. we report a case of hlh presenting with respiratory distress and fever, hepatosplenomegaly, jaundice and pancytopenia on the second day of life. ...
In this case report we describe the first case of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with concurrent cutis marmorata telangiectatica congenita. She had pancytopenia and hepatosplenomegaly, hemophagocytic cells in spleen necropsy, and she died with respiratory failure and pseudomonas induced septicemia.
BACKGROUND Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is becoming an increasingly recognized disorder in adults. Classical Hodgkin lymphoma is a relatively uncommon etiology of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and may complicate treatment options. Rituximab, etoposide, methylprednisolone, high-dose cytarabine, and cisplatin are discussed here as a treatment regimen. CASE PRESENTATION A 66-year-old ...
BACKGROUND Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a genetic disorder of lymphocyte cytotoxicity that usually presents in the first two years of life and has a poor prognosis unless treated by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Atypical courses with later onset and prolonged survival have been described, but no detailed analysis of immunological parameters associated with typical v...
