Bellanti JA. The PANDAS/PANS disorders. Is it time for more allergist-immunologists to get involved? Allergy Asthma Proc. 2023 Sep 1;44(5):296-305. doi: 10.2500/aap.2023.44.230029. PMID: 37641225.
Conclusion: The PANDAS/PANS disorders are a continuing burden for growing numbers of patients, health-care providers, and the global health-care systems, and are a particular challenge for the allergist/immunologist who is increasingly being called upon for their management. Because of the importance of immunologic factors in the pathogenesis and treatment of these conditions with anti-inflammatory and immune-modulating treatments, the allergist/immunologist is well poised to offer consultative care.
