LOINC code99971-4
nameHemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis multigene analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method
descriptionMultigene analysis for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a syndrome characterized by hyperactivation of the immune system, excessive cytokine secretion and severe systemic inflammation. HLH is classified as familial (FHL) when associated with mutations in specific genes, such as PRF1, UNC13D, STX11, and STXBP2 genes.[PMID: 33746956] Testing is performed for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic assessment in patients with HLH.
