ABSTRACT: Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is the aggressive proliferation of activated macrophages and histiocytes, which phagocytose RBCs, WBCs, and platelets leading to the clinical symptoms. Incidence is reported to be 1.2 cases per million persons per year. However, unpublished observations estimate that the figures have slightly increased over time because of improved detection. This is a case of 5-year old female who presented with intermittent fever for one and a half month, who was initially treated as dengue hemorrhagic fever. However, due to the persistence of fever and concomitant pancytopenia, other differential diagnoses such as Leukemia, and Systematic Lupus Erythematosus were considered. On her second month of illness, she was finally diagnosed with HLH secondary to Epstein Barr virus infection. In the sad turn of events, the patient succumbed to the complications of HLH. This report, therefore, aims to discuss the clinical presentation and diagnosis of HLH, and why it should be considered as an important diagnosis consideration in patients who present prolonged fever. Treatment and prognosis will also be discussed. |
