Hemophagocytic syndrome is a severe inflammatory response syndrome caused by abnormalities in the immune regulatory system, with symptoms such as fever, splenomegaly, and hemocytopenia.
1. Symptoms of hemophagocytic syndrome include unexplained persistent fever, which is often greater than 38 degrees Celsius and lasts for more than 7 days.
2. In addition, it may be accompanied by peripheral blood hematopoiesis, which usually involves more than 2 lines of peripheral blood, such as hemoglobin less than 90g/L, platelets less than 100×10^9/L, and neutrophils less than 1.0×10^9/L. It may be accompanied by whitening of the lips and mouth, petechiae and ecchymosis of the skin, and nosebleed, and may be accompanied by respiratory infections, and other symptoms.
3. Physical examination may reveal splenomegaly.
4. If there is central nervous system involvement, hemophagocytic syndrome may present with altered consciousness, epilepsy, convulsions, meningeal irritation signs, and ataxia.
In the presence of hemophagocytic syndrome, it is necessary to actively consult the doctor and follow the doctor’s instructions for rational treatment.
