ABSTRACT
Nowadays intravenous immunoglobulins have been used in different
vasculitis with various results for each condition, being more
recommended for its use in Kawasaki disease and ANCA-associated
vasculitis. However, there is still no solid evidence to support its use
in the entire group of these diseases. We present a review of the
existing literature related to the use of intravenous immunoglobulin
for the treatment of primary vasculitis in childhood.
