Incidence and clinical features of paediatric vasculitis in Eastern China: 14-year retrospective study, 1999-2013

Conclusions The most common primary vasculitides in this population of children from Eastern China were HSP and KD; other vasculitides were rare. Paediatricians should be suspicious of vasculitis when there is evidence of systemic inflammation and multisystem disease that cannot be explained by one specific disorder.
