The characteristics of upper airway edema in hereditary and acquired angioedema with C1‐inhibitor deficiency

open access: yesClinical and Translational Allergy, 2021
Background Angioedemas localized in the upper airway are potentially life threatening, and without proper treatment, they may lead to death by suffocation. Upper airway edemas (UAE) in bradykinin‐mediated angioedemas can even be the first symptoms of the
