J Pediatr Hematol Oncol. 2022 May 1;44(4):e866-e868. doi: 10.1097/MPH.0000000000002449. Epub 2022 Mar 16.

Abstract

Patients with primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis may present with different mutations and phenotypic findings. It is usually presented as case reports because of its rare occurrence. Here, we discuss a case diagnosed with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis 3, that presented in the neonatal period and was detected to have homozygous UNC13D and heterozygous STX11 mutations.
