Kawasaki Disease (KD) is an acute form of multi-systemic vasculitis, characterized by prolonged fever and systemic principal features including conjunctivitis, cervical lymphadenopathy, changes in extremities, polymorphous skin rashes, and changes in oral mucosa. KD occurs predominantly among preschool children and is capable of causing acquired pediatric cardiac disease, ranging from acute phase coronary aneurysms to long-term sequelae, such as coronary stenosis and obstructionAlthough all different licensed formulations of IVIG contain pooled IgG, there are differences in their manufacturing and content, which may result in different outcomesThe aim of the study was to conduct a head to head comparison of two IVIGs, TBSF and Privigen, from a nationwide perspective.
