    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Vascular Medicine
    • Rheumatology

    Background:

    • Raynaud's disease can be associated with underlying connective tissue diseases.
    • Idiopathic Raynaud's disease is diagnosed when no secondary cause is identified.

    Observation:

    • Five pediatric patients presented with symptoms of Raynaud's disease.
    • Comprehensive clinical, hematological, and immunological evaluations were performed.
    • No evidence of a collagen disorder was found in any of the children.

    Findings:

    • Idiopathic Raynaud's disease was diagnosed in all five children.
    • Oral phenoxybenzamine demonstrated efficacy as a maintenance therapy.
    • Acute episodes were successfully managed with prostacyclin, nitroprusside, and ketanserin infusions.

    Implications:

    • This study highlights the importance of thorough evaluation to rule out secondary causes of Raynaud's disease in children.
    • Phenoxybenzamine can be a valuable option for long-term management of pediatric Raynaud's.
    • Aggressive intravenous therapies are effective for managing severe acute attacks in this population.
