Summary:Summary Haemophagocytic syndrome is often associated with malignant lymphoma; however, few studies have examined lymphoma‐associated haemophagocytic syndrome (LAHS). A total of 1239 patients with non‐Hodgkin lymphoma were analysed at 12 institutions in Hokkaido prefecture between January 2007 and December 2011 to assess the incidence, prognosis and risk factors of LAHS. The cumulative incidence rate of LAHS was 2·8% (35/1239). Overall survival (OS) in patients with LAHS was significantly inferior to those without LAHS (3‐year OS: 35·6 vs. 59·0% respectively, P
