摘要
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is rare and life threatening syndrome. There are only a few reported cases of HLH with GI symptoms. We describe the case of an 18 months old boy who presented with a history of fever for 40 days, abdominal distention and hepatosplenomegaly. Abdominal x-ray showed a pneumoperitoneum. Urgent laparotomy was done which revealed an isolated cecal perforation. The histopathological findings in the subsequent resected bowel was HLH with evidence of positive EBV Barr infection.
