High serum ferritin alone as a predictor of mortality and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
© 2021 The Authors. eJHaem published by British Society for Haematology and John Wiley & Sons Ltd..
We report here utility of high serum ferritin alone as a predictor of mortality and diagnosis of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). We compared mortality in patients with high serum ferritin >5000 ng/mL versus <5000 ng/mL and looked for presence of HLH. Mortality was significantly higher (P-value .0048) in patients with serum ferritin levels >5000 ug/dL. Of 21 patients with high serum ferritin, a median of three criteria were fulfilled to diagnose HLH. All patients had features of immune-activation, and 76.2% patients had features of immune-pathology favoring diagnosis of HLH. Serum ferritin can aid in prediction of mortality and help in the early diagnosis of HLH.
