Objectives: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare disorder of hypercytokinemia and immune dysregulation. Most commonly diagnosed in the pediatric population due to genetic predisposition, the condition can manifest in the adult population secondary to an immune dysregulating event, such as infection, malignancy, rheumatologic disorders, immunodeficiency, and checkpoint inhibitors. The presentation and diagnosis during pregnancy are extremely rare and elusive.
