AbstractHemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) constitutes a life-threatening inflammatory syndrome.

However, there are a limited number of sHLH cases in which trephine has been performed in living post-COVID-19 patients. Here we present a recent case and a mini-review of sHLH diagnosed by trephine biopsy in living patients after COVID-19. An 81-year-old man with a past medical history of hypertension, diabete...
