Core Tip |
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, life-threatening condition typically triggered in adults by conditions such as cancer, infections, and autoimmune disorders, resulting in immune system over-activation. Relapsing polychondritis (RP), an uncommon disease, is diagnosed through physical examination. In contrast to primary HLH, which necessitates stem cell transplantation is the only definitive cure, acquired HLH can be managed with therapies such as chemotherapy and immunosuppressive therapy, tailored to the underlying cause. The patient received treatment for HLH using RP therapies and was successfully cured with methylprednisolone (1 mg/kg) and azathioprine. |
