Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a highly fatal hyperinflammatory syndrome that is increasingly being recognized in adults. It can be primary or secondary in the setting of malignancy, autoimmune disorders, infections, or acquired immune deficiencies. We present a case of a 50-year-old man with enterovirus-associated multiorgan system dysfunction and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.Entities:
