Angioedema likely related to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors.
Angioedema associated with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors is a rare adverse reaction. It commonly involves the face, oropharyngeal and laryngeal tissues. To our knowledge, angioedema of the abdominal viscera related to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors has not been reported previously. We present a rare case of a patient who had episodes angioedema and abdominal pain with ascit...
متن کاملAngioedema Related to Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
The number of cases of acquired angioedema related to angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors induced (ACEI-AAE) is on the increase, with a potential concomitant increase in life-threatening attacks of laryngeal edema. Our objective was to determine the main characteristics of ACEI-AAE attacks and, in doing so, the factors associated with likelihood of hospital admission from the emergency dep...

متن کاملSmall Bowel Angioedema Secondary to Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors
Small bowel angioedema induced by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors is a rare clinicopathologic entity. It frequently poses a diagnostic challenge and is often not recognized before surgical exploration. The present study illustrates that clinical awareness for this condition and adequate use of radiologic investigations can help make the correct diagnosis of ACE inhibitor-associat...

To the Editor: We read with interest the article on the effects of nabilone on postoperative pain by Pierre Beaulieu.1 While it is unfortunate that his results did not generate firm conclusions, we believe that descriptive subgroup analyses may have yielded some important information regarding the effects of nabilone on postoperative morphine consumption and side-effects. Nineteen of the 41 pat...
