Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in children- A case series

Abstract

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare disorder in children characterised by immune dysregulation and is a potentially life threatening condition. Early initiation of therapy is found to reduce mortality in HLH. A high index of suspicion in children presenting with prolonged fever is needed for early diagnosis of HLH.
