Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and pelger-huët anomaly associated with colchicine intoxication.
[familial mediterranean fever]
Colchicine
is
frequently
used
in
the
treatment
of
familial
Mediterranean
fever
(
FMF
)
.
First
symptoms
of
colchicine
intoxication
are
gastrointestinal
disturbances
,
such
as
abdominal
cramps
,
diarrhea
,
pancytopenia
and
so
on
.
Herein
,
we
report
a
female
FMF
patient
with
pancytopenia
and
hemophagocytic
lymphohitiocytosis
(
HLH
)
,
following
colchicine
intoxication
for
committing
suicide
.
To
our
knowledge
,
this
is
the
first
reported
case
of
a
patient
with
HLH
associated
with
colchicine
intoxication
.
