Abstract
Cytokine storm syndromes (CSS) include different entities such as macrophage activation syndrome, primary and secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) associated with COVID-19. An effective management strategy is critical in CSS. While biologics have become an essential part of CSS treatment, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has changed the fate of primary HLH patients. This chapter will focus on the available alternative immunomodulatory therapies in CSS, which include corticosteroids, cyclosporine A, intravenous immunoglobulin, interleukin 18 binding protein, therapeutic plasmapheresis, HSCT, and mesenchymal stromal cell-based therapies.
