Abstract

The management of patients with acute chest syndrome is changing as its etiology and pathophysiology are being defined. Current management should include aggressive evaluation and monitoring, and treatment should be tailored to each patient's clinical course. New therapies show promise in reducing morbidity of acute chest syndrome in the future.
