  • Title: [Farquhar disease. Reduced phagocyte function in a 9-year-old girl with erythrophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis].

    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1992 Jun; 140(6):336-9. PubMed ID: 1640943.
    Abstract:
    We report phagocyte function tests in a female infant with familial hemophagozytotic lymphohistiocytosis. Chemiluminescence and killing of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by monocytes and granulocytes before chemotherapy and in remission were examined. Patients' monocytes and granulocytes showed a markedly reduced chemiluminescence and killing capacity irrespective of the stage of disease.
