Angioedema is a localized swelling of the skin and submucosal tissues and is generally benign and self-limiting. However, it can be life threatening if angioedema involves the upper airway, resulting in airway obstruction. Airway protection would be critical and lifesaving in patients with angioedema irrespective of the underlying etiology.

Angioedema usually occurs within the setting of allergic diseases or urticaria, but situations occur in which angioedema itself represents a disease, such as in hereditary angioedema. Evaluation of patients for recurrent angioedema without wheals must take into account both specific clinical signs and symptoms and specialized laboratory testing.

Urticarial wheals and angioedema are 2 different clinical symptoms. Both belong to various disease entities, and may occur in combination or be isolated. Increased vasodilation and vasopermeability is a common feature. Histamine and bradykinin are well-known mediators.

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1988
Although the condition is rare, patients with hereditary angioedema often present because of abdominal pain or airway compromise. A 27-year-old woman presented to the emergency department in acute abdominal distress. Identification of the disease in this patient allowed for proper management and avoidance of invasive procedures.

Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor-induced angioedema is typically easily recognizable in the emergency department. Angioedema lateralizing to one side, however, is infrequently reported, rare, and has the same potential of progression to airway compromise.

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that usual results from a decreased level of functional C1-INH and clinically manifests with intermittent attacks of swelling of the subcutaneous tissue or submucosal layers of the respiratory or gastrointestinal tracts.

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2007
Angioedema is a self-limited nonpitting edema generally affecting the deeper layers of the skin and mucous membranes. It is the result of increased vascular permeability causing the leakage of fluid into the skin in response to potent vasodilators released by immunologic mediators. Two main pathways are thought to be implicated in angioedema.

Urticaria, also known as hives, may affect up to 20% of the population at some time. Urticaria is described as pruritic erythematous, raised, circumscribed lesions with central pallor that blanch with pressure. Urticaria is closely associated with angioedema in 40% of individuals; approximately 10% of patients experience angioedema without urticaria ...

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2005
Major advances have been made in understanding the clinical signs and symptoms, the pathophysiology and the treatment of hereditary angioedema. This disease that often begins in childhood is caused by partial absence of the plasma protein C1-inhibitor.

Urticaria and angioedema are commonly encountered complaints in children. Although the diagnosis is clear, establishing an etiology, especially with respect to chronic urticaria, can be challenging. A significant proportion of chronic urticarial cases are now considered to have an autoimmune etiology.
