    Abstract:
    Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a rare hyperinflammatory disorder characterised by CD8+ T lymphocyte activation and hypercytokinemia. Autoimmune disorders including hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis have been described in HIV patients; however, it is a rare initial presentation of HIV infection. We present an unusual case of HIV infection presenting with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
