title: A case report of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH).
abstract: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), is an uncommon, life-threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome caused by severe hypercytokinemia with excessive activation of lymphocytes and macrophages due to a highly stimulated but ineffective immune process. We report a case of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in a 15 year old boy presenting with fever, lymphadenopathy and pancytopenia due to infection caused by Klebsiella Pneumoniae and Acinetobacter.
