N2 - Rubinstein–Taybi syndrome (RSTS) is an autosomal dominant disorder, caused by variants in CREBBP or EP300. Affected individuals present with distinctive craniofacial features, broad thumbs and/or halluces, intellectual disability and immunodeficiency. Here we report on one RSTS patient who experienced hemophagocytic lymphohystiocytosis (HLH) and disseminated herpes virus 1 (HSV-1) disease. The clinical picture of RSTS is expanding to include autoinflammatory, autoimmune, and infectious complications. Prompt treatment of HLH and disseminated HSV-1 can lower the mortality rate of these life-threatening conditions.
