Prevalence, trends, and outcomes of hematological malignancies in patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an acute, rapidly progressive systemic inflammatory disorder that often occurs secondary to hematological malignancies among other conditions in adults. Although the annual incidence of HLH is increasing, detailed epidemiological knowledge of HLH is still limited, especially in patients with hematological malignancies.
