“…It happens that patients without neurological symptoms have changes in imaging studies and vice versa -patients with multiple neurological changes do not always have visible abnormalities in radiological imaging. Less frequent clinical manifestations of hemophagocytic syndrome include: arrhythmia (mainly in the course secondary to Kawasaki disease) or chronic bloody diarrhea (XLP-2), albinism or pseudoalbinism -typical for primary HLH such as Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS), Griscelli syndrome (GS II), and Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) [3,[4][5][6].…”

“…During disease monitoring it is important to perform follow-up lumbar punctures, in which signs of disease retreatment are usually seen earlier than on imaging studies. In primary forms of HLH, CSF lesions are more commonly present, with no abnormalities on CNS MR imaging [6,11].…”

“…It should also be kept in mind that abnormalities seen on imaging studies may be a result of chemotherapy. Examples include changes consistent with posterior reversible encephalopathy (PRES), associated with steroid therapy and CSA [6,11].…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
