Emergencies in pediatric rheumatology practice are relatively uncommon but rapid diagnosis and treatment are fundamental. Emergencies can be often misdiagnosed but prompt recognition and treatment are fundamental in order to reduce mortality and morbidity. This narrative review is a non-systematic analysis of the literature addressing the main emergencies in pediatric rheumatology. We aim to summarize the most relevant and frequent emergencies in pediatric rheumatology and provide practical guidance for the diagnosis and the management of emergency rheumatic disease in childhood.
