Conditions

Bowel Resection, Epstein-Barr Virus, Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis

Brief summary

EBV-HLH is a rare disease with high mortality, especially for those with intestinal involvement. In order to reduce disease burden and improve survival of these patients, we conduct a prospective observational study to explore the efficacy and safety of segmental resection combined with the DEP regimen.

Detailed description

Epstein-Barr virus associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a rare disease with high mortality, especially for those with intestinal involvement. Some of them still died despite early control of the disease due to severe complications, such as gastrointestinal bleeding. In order to reduce disease burden and improve survival of these patients, we conduct a prospective observational study to explore the efficacy and safety of segmental resection combined with the DEP regimen.

Interventions

OTHERSegmental bowel resection combined with the DEP regimen

Segmental bowel resection combined with liposomal doxorubicin, etoposide, and methylprednisolone administered in 2 week cycles for 2 cycles
