Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2011We recently treated a patient with adult-onset Still's disease who developed macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) secondary to disseminated histoplasmosis while being treated with adalimumab. The gastroenterology service was consulted early, before diagnosis, as the patient presented with elevated liver enzymes and disseminated intravascular ...

The genetics of macrophage activation syndrome
Genes & Immunity, 2020Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), or secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), is a cytokine storm syndrome associated with multi-organ system dysfunction and high mortality rates. Laboratory and clinical features resemble primary HLH, which arises in infancy (1 in 50,000 live births) from homozygous mutations in various genes critical to

Rowell syndrome complicated with macrophage activation syndrome in a child
Lupus, 2019Rowell syndrome (RS) is a rare disease characterized by the association of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or cutaneous lupus with lesions similar to erythema multiforme and the presence of autoantibodies including ANA, SSA, SSB, or rheumatoid factor. Due to the low incidence of this disease, the epidemiology of RS is not clear.

Etanercept for therapy‐resistant macrophage activation syndrome
Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 2006AbstractMacrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is a severe, potentially fatal complication of childhood rheumatic diseases, especially systemic onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SoJIA). We report a 4‐year‐old girl with probable SoJIA who presented with MAS. She did not respond to pulse methyl prednisolone and Cyclosporine A (CsA).

Macrophage activation syndrome.
The Journal of the Association of Physicians of India, 2006Macrophage Activation Syndrome is a rare and potentially fatal disease, to be considered in patients with a SIRS like clinical presentation. Falling ESR and hyperferritinemia in the appropriate clinical setting can be the greatest clues. We report a case in which a female admitted with fever and rash, initially had systemic inflammatory response ...
