Apparently this is deliberate. From the editor in charge of this area:
"This question of hemophagocytic syndrome vs hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis has come up before. I would leave them as two separate entities. It is true that in the vast majority of cases these two terms are interchangeable but the term hemophagocytic syndrome may include rare cases which are not necessarily qualified as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis."
Thanks! I wonder if the Orphanet people would consider a consistent representation? cc @annieorly
closing this as I think there is no action for ncit here
HLH is an only-child in NCIT:
the def of HS mentions primary and secondary HLH but no non-HLH subtypes:
HLH:
Orphanet treats HLH and HS as the same thing.
Is the NCIT decision deliberate or should these be merged?
