误诊为噬血细胞综合征的合并噬血现象的结节性麻风病1例

Leprosy is an infectious chronic granulomatous disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. The disease mainly affects the skin, peripheral nerves, mucosa, and viscera. The World Health Organization has reported that most countries with high endemicity have reached the goal of eliminating leprosy (defined as reaching a prevalence of<1 leprosy case per 10 000 population) at the national level, after years of proactive control campaigns. The incidence of leprosy has been decreasing across the globe year by year. However, misdiagnosis happens occasionally due to the complexity of clinical manifestations and lack of physician awareness of this disease. We report a case of lepromatous leprosy complicated by hemophagocytosis misdiagnosed as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.首都医科大学附属北京友谊医院血液内科王昭
