Hemophagocytic syndrome is a non-malignant process that is characterized
clinically by fever, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, pancytopenia in
peripheral blood, and reactive histiocytes in the bone marrow. Bacterial
infectious diseases like typhoid fever and brucellosis and viral infections
including CMV, herpes viruses, and Epstein-Barr virus are diagnosed as the
cause of this syndrome. In this paper we present six patients with hemophagocytic
syndrome who had blood culture or bone marrow culture, and or
serology positive for typhoid fever or brucellosis. This is the first report of
hemophagocytic syndrome in Iran.
