    Abstract:
    Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare but aggressive and potentially fatal condition characterized by excessive immune activation. It can occur as primary/ familial and secondary/sporadic/ acquired form. Infections can play a role as triggers in the secondary form of HLH. A case of Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) in a patient of Scrub typhus is being reported here. Such association of scrub typhus and HLH is rare.
