Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare blood disorder commonly found in young children. It is not a well understood disease and therefore can be difficult to treat. There are two types of HLH, primary and secondary.
There are 2 types of HLH: familial and acquired. Familial HLH accounts for about 25% of cases and families pass down the condition. If both parents are genetic carriers of HLH, a child has a 25% chance of having the disease, a 25% chance of not having the disease, and a 50% chance of being a carrier.
