Secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) from a presumed brown recluse spider bite.

Christopher Dandoy1, Michael Grimley.   

Abstract

Systemic loxoscelism is a rare complication after Loxosceles reclusa (brown recluse spider) envenomation. Loxosceles venom contains pro-inflammatory proteins, which have been shown to be elevated in patients with hemophagocytic lymph histiocytosis. We present a case of a 10-year-old male that developed presumed systemic loxoscelism, secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with hepatic dysfunction and renal failure. He was treated with dexamethasone and made a full recovery.
