Popis: | SETTING: Tuberculosis (TB) is a potential trigger of haemophagocytic syndrome (HS) but little is known about the features of TB-associated HS.OBJECTIVE: To assess the risk factors associated with HS in patients with TB.DESIGN: We performed a multicentre case-control study assessing the medical records of adult patients diagnosed with proven TB with (TB/HS+) or without (TB/HS–) associated HS.RESULTS: Twenty-one patients with TB/HS+ (24% women, median age, 37 years [IQR 30–48]) were included in the study. Eleven patients (52%) were infected with human immunodeficiency virus and seven patients (33%) were immunocompromised due to other reasons. TB was disseminated in 17 patients (81%). Compared with 50 control TB patients (TB/HS–), patients with TB/HS+ were more likely to be immunocompromised (86% vs. 18%; P < 0.001) and to present with disseminated TB (80% vs. 12%; P < 0.001). The outcome was poorer in patients with TB/HS+, with a higher admission rate to intensive care (71% vs. 0%; P < 0.001) and a higher risk of death (38% vs. 7%; P = 0.005).CONCLUSION: TB/HS+ occurred more likely in immunocompromised patients and severely impaired the prognosis of TB. Further studies are needed to devise therapeutic strategies for patients with TB/HS+. |
