Retrospective cohort assessed clinical data and outcomes in children with rare vasculitides, suggesting effective management strategies.

To evaluate rare childhood vasculitides through clinical, laboratory, imaging, and outcome data analysis.
Retrospective cohort study of 74 children with 8 rare vasculitides at a single center.
Demographics, imaging, and disease activity scores recorded at diagnosis, 12 months, and last visit.
Utilized Pediatric Vasculitis Activity Score and Pediatric Vasculitis Damage Index to assess outcomes.
Overall remission rate was 91.9% (n=68/74), indicating a favorable prognosis.
TA exhibited the longest corticosteroid use and highest damage scores.
DADA2 had the longest diagnostic delay (median 20 months) while PACNS had the youngest median onset age (4.6 years).
