Case Report: Pediatric CNS-isolated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis secondary to uniparental disomy of PRF1 mutation

We report a highly unusual case of CNS-HLH diagnosed by uniparental disomy of a <i>PRF1</i> mutation. Exome sequencing should be considered in patients with chronic or recurrent brain inflammation who show partial or no response to conventional treatment regimens.

Abstract

We report a highly unusual case of CNS-HLH diagnosed by uniparental disomy of a <i>PRF1</i> mutation. Exome sequencing should be considered in patients with chronic or recurrent brain inflammation who show partial or no response to conventional treatment regimens.
