Juvenile idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a common rheumatic disorder in children that can cause multiple systems to be affected simultaneously, leading to severe clinical symptoms and a high mortality rate in those with pulmonary involvement. Pleurisy is the most common manifestation of pulmonary involvement. At the same time, other conditions, such as pneumonia, interstitial lung disease, occlusive bronchiectasis, and alveolar protein deposition, have been increasingly reported in recent years. This review aims to provide an overview of the clinical manifestations of JIA lung damage and the current treatment options to assist in identifying and treating JIA lung involvement.
