Virus associated hemophagocytic syndrome (VAHS) are a heterogeneous group of disorders in which viral infection is associated with a proliferation of hemophagocytic histiocytes through the reticuloendothelial system. We report the case of a 21-year-old Korean man who presented to us with high fever, marked hepatosplenomegaly, severe hepatic dysfunction, coagulopathy, pancytopenia and marked pan...
Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a rare and potentially fatal complication of rheumatic disorders in children. We describe a 13-month-old boy in whom MAS developed as a complication of systemic juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (S-JRA). He suffered from fever and generalized rash followed by multiple joints swelling for four months before admission. Physical examination revealed cervical lym...
HLH was first described by Farquhar and Claireaux in 1952 as a familial disease [1]. Interestingly in their cases hemophagocytosis, which has given the disease its name, could not be found during lifetime but was prominent on autopsy. Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHLH) is an autosomal recessive disorder with an estimated frequency of 0.12/100 000 children per year [2]. Several g...
Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a rare feature of rheumatic disorders in children and adolescence and its presentation as the first symptom of rheumatic disorders is very infrequent. A 9-year-old girl, in whom MAS developed, was admitted to our Hospital in Tehran, Iran. She suffered from high grade fever and rash followed by multiple joint swelling months afterwards. Bone marrow aspira...
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an aggressive and life-threating immune dysregulation syndrome characterized by persistent activation of the mononuclear phagocytic system leading to uncontrolled systemic hyperinflammatory response. The proliferation and activation of histiocytes and lymphocytes lead to production of large amounts of cytokines, also called cytokine storm. Hematopoiet...
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) sometimes causes immunological complications in children. We present a rare case of hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) caused by Mp in a previously healthy 7-year-old Japanese girl. A chest radiograph obtained to evaluate the source of her fever showed infiltration in the lower right lung with mild splenomegaly. We could diagnose the patient with HPS on the basis of the he...
CONTEXT Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) is mainly characterized by massive infiltration of bone marrow by activated macrophages and often presents with pancytopenia. Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is also present with thrombocytopenia and renal involvement. Both conditions could coexist with each other and complicate the condition. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)...
The clonal composition of EBV-infected cells was examined in three cases of EBV-associated hemophagocytic syndrome by analysis of the heterogeneity of terminal repetitive sequences in the EBV genome, indicating monoclonal expansion of EBV-infected cells in all cases. Involvement of T lymphoid cells was determined by in situ hybridization using 35S-labeled RNA probes specific for the small EBV-e...
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), also known as hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS), is a rare, life-threatening, hematologic disorder manifested by clinical findings of extreme inflammation and unregulated immune activation. In both its congenital (primary) and adult (secondary) forms, it is most often characterized by fevers, hepatomegaly or splenomegaly, and bi- or trilineage cytopenias. I...
Figure 1. May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining (original magnification, ϫ1000) of the patient's bone marrow aspirate (left panel), showing unstained oblong shapes (white arrows) in the cytoplasma of several macrophages, and Ziehl-Neelsen staining of the same area (right panel), revealing the unstained objects to be acid-fast bacilli (black arrows). Diagnosis: hemophagocytic syndrome due to disseminated...
