Abstract Background The incidence of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in children is increasing, posing a serious threat to life safety. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) has demonstrated the ability to modulate the immune system and has shown the potential to treat RMPP. This study evaluated the clinical efficacy and safety of azithromycin combined with IVIG in the treatment of RMPP in children through a meta-analysis. Methods A comprehensive search was conducted in seven databases including PubMed and Cochrane Library, and the studies on the treatment of RMPP in children with azithromycin combined with IVIG were screened. After data extraction, meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed to assess heterogeneity and stability.
