A case of hematophagic histiocytosis associated with acute renal failure.

The present report describes a rare case of hematophagic histiocytosis associated with acute renal failure. A 32-year-old woman was referred to us from a local hospital because of progressive deterioration of renal function, jaundice and a bleeding tendency. The physical findings at admission revealed hyperemic conjunctivae, gingival bleeding, hepatomegaly, and generalized myalgia. Laboratory data indicated a decrease in platelet count, azotemia and hyperbilirubinemia. Marked elevation of serum triglycerides and ferritin was also noted. Histiocyte proliferation with phagocytosis of erythrocytes and platelets was observed in a bone marrow aspirate. A renal biopsy specimen exhibited lesions generally observed in acute tubular necrosis: degeneration and necrosis of tubular epithelial cells; round cell infiltration and edema in the interstitium; and unremarkable glomeruli. The serum titer to coxsackievirus B1 rose from < 4x at admission to 16x after recovery from the illness, suggesting that this virus may have been the causal organism of the accompanying infection. The patient's symptoms improved rapidly with supportive therapy, and complete restoration of renal function was achieved in 20 days. The morphological characteristics of the bone marrow aspirate and the clinical course were compatible with hematophagic histiocytosis.
