Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare condition characterized by fever, hepatosplenomegaly, and cytopenia, and widespread accumulation of lymphocytes and histiocytes, sometimes with hemophagocytosis, primarily involving the spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow, and liver. HLH can either occur sporadically (secondary HLH) or as part of a familial syndrome (primary HLH), including familial HLH and the distinct immunodeficiency syndromes. Herein the authors report 6 Iranian patients with primary HLH and their outcome from a single tertiary-care center.
