“MAS”, hemophagocytic syndrome, HLHMAS is secondary HLH!Important for - diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic
reasons

Genetic, primary HLH• FHLH - Chromosome 9 linkage - PRF1 mutations - UNC13d mutations - Unknown mutations
• Immune deficiency syndromes - CHS - Griscelli syndrome - XLP
Acquired, secondary HLH• Exogenous agents - infectious organisms, toxins (VAHS, IAHS)
• Endogenous products - tissue damage - radical stress - metabolic
• Rheumatic diseases (MAS)
• Malignancies

IVIG in HLH
Useful alone or in conjunction with steroidsUseful when diagnosis unclear7/20 pts in one study treated with IVIG
(Emmenegger et al)Good response with one group in Switzerland

Cyclosporin in HLH
EffectiveBeware of neurotoxicity when given
parenterallySeveral reports of success, part of HLH-94?DMARD of choice in SoJIA patients at high risk
of HLH

Etoposide in HLH
Very effectivePerhaps not used enough by RheumatologistsConsider outside the context of HLH-94
