X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) is a rare, often fatal genetic disorder characterized by extreme vulnerability to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV-induced hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a known presentation in XLP. In EBV-induced HLH in XLP, the brain imaging findings in the acute phase include a non specific pattern. In this report, we highlight the magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy findings in a child with EBV induced HLH in XLP.
X连锁淋巴细胞增生性疾病（XLP）是一种罕见的、通常致命的遗传性疾病，其特征是极易感染爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒（EBV）。EBV诱导的噬血细胞性淋巴组织细胞增生症（HLH）是XLP的一种已知表现形式。在XLP中EBV诱导的HLH的急性期，脑部影像学表现为非特异性模式。在本报告中，我们重点介绍了一名患有XLP中EBV诱导HLH的儿童的磁共振成像和磁共振波谱结果。
