A Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis Patient Initiated with Prominent Liver Dysfunction: a Case Report
HEMOPHAGOCYTIC lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an aggressive and potentially fatal syndrome that results from inappropriate activation of lymphocytes and macrophages. It is characterized by fever
hepatosplenomegaly
cytopenias
hypertriglyceridemia
hypofibrinogenemia
and pathologic findings of hemo- phagocytosis in the bone marrow or other tissues. We report an adult HLH case admitted to hepatology department.
