The onset of malignancy-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (M-HLH) may be associated with the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines from malignant cells. We here report a patient with recurrent neuroblastoma who developed hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis after surgery for brain metastases and relapsed after chemotherapy. The neuroblastoma cells in the recurrent tumor were positive for tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6, whereas the primary site was negative. The secretion of proinflammatory cytokines from neuroblastoma cells may have been related to the pathogenesis of M-HLH in our patients. We should pay attention to possible development of M-HLH when treating advanced neuroblastoma.
