Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a rare disease that usually occurs in infants and adults. Most babies have this problem. Many things can cause Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in adults, including cancer and disease. In this disease, your immune system is affected and does not work properly. Some white blood cells, primarily lymphocytes and histiocytes, attack other cells in the blood, including abnormal cells that build up in the liver and spleen and cause large tumours. Therefore, in this article today, we will briefly understand hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
Introduction
Adult hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a life-threatening or rare disease in immunocompromised adults. It is usually a secondary reaction to an underlying disease, such as immunosuppression or another disease or malignancy, and requires immediate treatment for effectiveness. It is also called hemophagocytosis or hemophagocytic syndrome. This severe condition is caused by the uncontrolled growth of active macrophages and lymphocytes that secrete high levels of cytokines.
Causes
The cause of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis can be inherited or acquired. Causes are:-
- Weak immune system
- Viral infection, mainly the Epstein-Barr virus
- Cancer
- Fungal infection
- Bacterial infection
- Metabolic disorders
Types of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis are of two types:
1. Primary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
It is a genetic condition that occurs after a mutation. In this, symptoms usually appear within the first few years of life and this can happen if you are born with a genetic predisposition to primary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. These symptoms rarely occur in adulthood.
2. Secondary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
Secondary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis occurs when you have an underlying condition that affects the functioning of your immune system. Other conditions that can cause Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis include infection, cancer, or autoimmune disease. Secondary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is more common than primary Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.

Ayurvedic Aspect
In Ayurveda, we can associate this disease with tridoshas-vata, pitta, and kapha. All three doshas are connected with each other. When kapha is broken down, it accumulates in the tissues of the body and increases pitta dosha. Kapha and pitta affect vata channels, causing inflammation or pain in the tissues, and excess kapha causes inflammation in various organs of the body. All the doshas go in the wrong direction, causing disorders in different parts or organs of the body.
