*Clinical and pathologic features of EBV-HLH and systemic EBV positive T-cell lymphoma of childhood overlap. These entities have been suggested to represent a biologic continuum&lt;br /&gt;
*EBV-HLH is defined by a constellation of clinical symptoms and laboratory changes that might be triggered by EBV-associated lymphomas including aggressive NK-cell leukemia (ANKL) and systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma of childhood&lt;br /&gt;
*EBV-HLH associated with genetic abnormalities (primary HLH) can be excluded by genetic analysis and family history&lt;br /&gt;
*Systemic CAEBV infection is difficult to differentiate from systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma based only on morphologic grounds. The clinical information is necessary to achieve the correct diagnosis&lt;br /&gt;
*ANKL is very similar to systemic EBV-positive T-cell lymphoma but the tumor cells express NK cell markers (CD56+) and do not show monoclonal TCR gene rearrangements&lt;br /&gt;

*Poor outcomes overall due to cytokine storm in HLH&lt;br /&gt;
*Survival rates lower with disease onset after 8 years and with liver dysfunction at diagnosis&lt;br /&gt;
*Death due to rapid disease progression for which there is no effective treatment&lt;br /&gt;
*No known treatment; some case reports of response to etoposide and dexamethasone-based regimen followed by allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation&lt;br /&gt;
