Clinical features and recurrence patterns of pediatric idiopathic orbital inflammatory disease

Pediatric IOID frequently presents with diffuse or deep orbital involvement on imaging. While corticosteroid therapy is generally effective, these subtypes may be more prone to steroid-dependent relapse during tapering. The association between steroid tapering and relapse remains to be fully substantiated, and further studies are needed to explore this potential relationship. Imaging-based classification may help predict recurrence risk and guide individualized long-term management strategies for pediatric IOID.
