Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma presenting as fatal gastrointestinal bleeding and haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a severe hyperinflammatory syndrome that should be considered in patients with persistent fevers. Here, we present a patient with a clinical diagnosis of Behçet's disease who presented acutely with rectal bleeding secondary to acute intraluminal ileal haemorrhage. During her admission, she developed HLH with fevers, hyperferritinaemia, cytopaenia and coagulopathy. Despite treatment with intravenous corticosteroids and anakinra, her condition deteriorated rapidly, and she died 16 days later. After her death, the diagnosis of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma was made based on bone marrow biopsy and bowel histopathology. This case highlights the importance of early consideration of HLH in patients with fevers, falling cell counts and hyperferritinaemia and identification of the underlying aetiology. Through this case report, we discuss the diagnostic challenges and importance of a multidisciplinary approach.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
