Peripheral T cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic syndrome in a patient with human adjuvant disease.
2003
Hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) is a rare complication of lymphoma. We report a 70-year-old woman with human adjuvant disease who developed lymphoma-associated HPS (LAHPS) and elevated serum soluble interleukin (IL)-2 receptor. Despite intensive therapy, she died of pneumonia. Necropsy revealed a prominent spleen containing atypical T cells and many erythrophagocytizing histiocytes.
