- W1687666572 abstract "Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a disorder characterized by uncontrolled mature histiocyte proliferation, hemophagocytosis, and hypercytokinemia. We describe a previously healthy pregnant patient who presented in the third trimester of pregnancy with HLH.A 35-year-old woman presented at 38 weeks' gestation with pyrexia, jaundice, severe anemia, elevated liver enzymes, and lactate dehydrogenase suggestive of HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzyme, low platelet) syndrome. Unfortunately, her condition deteriorated and she was ventilated in the intensive care unit despite delivery of the baby and administration of dexamethasone. She developed microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal impairment suggestive of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura/hemolytic uremic syndrome. However, she was refractory to plasma exchange, intravenous immunoglobulin, and broad-spectrum antibiotics. HLH was eventually diagnosed from biochemical and bone marrow findings. An extensive search for possible causes yielded negative results. She improved significantly with intravenous dexamethasone and cyclosporine A and was transferred out of the intensive care unit. Unfortunately, she developed cytomegalovirus disease 2 weeks later, which improved transiently with intravenous ganciclovir; later, however, she succumbed to multidrug-resistant nosocomial infections, rapidly progressive cytomegalovirus disease, and multiorgan failure.This case highlights the challenges and difficulties involved in the diagnosis and management of pregnancy-related HLH. Immunosuppressive treatment for HLH can precipitate life-threatening opportunistic infections, which need to be promptly diagnosed and treated." @default.
