%X Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis triggered by disseminated Bacillus Calmette-Guerin infection is rare. Targeted next-generation sequencing for tuberculosis can rapidly identify different strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex as well as drug resistance genes. Herein we report 2 cases of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in whom targeted next-generation sequencing rapidly identified Bacillus Calmette-Guerin as the infectious trigger.
