 26/m 
 c/o- 
 Swelling over face and nose -40 days 
 fever-40 days
History 
 2nd june- ESS (pan sinusitis)[intra op 
finding-septal perforation and sinus was 
filled with purulent discharge] 
 After 10th day of surgery-swelling over 
nose and face 
 Started on conservative management 
.but no response

 Macrophage Activation Syndrome or 
Hemophagocytic Syndrome 
 haemophagocytosis- pathologic finding 
of activated macrophages engulfing 
erythrocytes, leukocytes,platelets, and 
their precursor cells.

ACTIVATED MACROPHAGES 
PHAGOCYTOSE RBCS,WBCS,PLATELETS
CLINICAL FEATURES 
 Onset- abrupt 
 Many present with fever of unknown origin. 
 Systemic manifestations-pallor,fever,rash, 
lymphadenopathy,hepatosplenomegaly,neurological 
manifestations. 
 It takes a fulminant course and has a fatal 
outcome.
