Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening syndrome that predominantly affects infants from birth to 18 months of age, characterized by fever and multiorgan failure. Liver injury has been rarely reported as a presenting sign in the neonatal period. This study reports a case with HLH in the neonatal period who presented with acute liver failure.
CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, a 3-day-old female newborn was admitted with cytopenia, increased liver enzymes, hypofibrinogenemia, and markedly elevated serum ferritin. Hemophagocytosis of bone marrow biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of HLH. The newborn was treated with HLH-2004 protocol, but she finally died from multiorgan failure.
CONCLUSION: Growing awareness of HLH as a cause of liver failure in the neonatal period can be associated with early treatment and reduces mortality in this group of patients.
