Method
• Single center (France) retrospective1981 to 1993
• 34 patients (19 girls, 15 boys) with HLH–25 patients with family history
(consanguinity or siblings affected same syndrome–9 patients without family history, no
concomitant infection-induced, recurrence of hemophagocytic syndrome
• Evaluate : clinical, CSF, neuroradiolological studies

• 92 patients with HLH January 2004 to August 2008
• 82 patients (89%) active viral infection–69/82 patients (75%) EBV infection
• 9 patients not find any underlying disease• None of the patients were offspring of
consanguineous marriages or history of siblings affected by same syndrome–82 were only child in the family

Methods
• Prior to start therapy, all patients underwent –CSF cytology and biochemical
assays –Brain CT and/or MRI examination
• CSF analysis repeated weekly until normalize
• CT or MRI examinations –Repeated at 8-week intervals until
treatment stopped –Completed therapy every 6 months
for at least 1 year

RESULTS
• 43 patients CNS involvement, either clinical, MRI/CT or CSF abnormalities
• 36 (84%) patients had EBV-HLH• No underlying disease found in 5
patients
