Abstract
Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare condition not commonly observed in neonatal units. It poses a challenge to neonatal staff to source expertise and information when diagnosing and treating patients with this condition. This article uses a case study of a neonate with HLH to analyse interdisciplinary team dynamics in hospital and explore how teams can effectively share knowledge and learn from each other when treating patients with rare and complex conditions.
