Background and purpose: Urticaria is one of the most widespread skin inflammatory diseases that reduce the quality of life, especially in chronic cases. Considering the very close compatibility of urticaria and angioedema with Shara and Mashara in Persian Medicine, this paper aimed at comparing their signs, symptoms, and etiology and suggests a more comprehensive diagnostic perspective and pave...
Background Angioedema of the upper airway is a life-threatening Emergency Department (ED) presentation with many etiologies. Angiotensin converting enzyme-inhibitor (ACE-I) use is one cause of non-mast cell mediated angioedema. As the use of this medication class increases with our aging population, it is important to characterize the presentation and management of ACE-I induced angioedema (AAE...
Hereditary angioedema (HEA) is a disease characterized by decreased levels or function of C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH). The symptoms of HEA in pediatric age group generally consist of recurrent episodes of soft tissue swelling. These symptoms can be transient, subtle, and varied in severity. Genitourinary system is rarely affected in this disease. Here, a three-year-old girl who presented wit...

Angioedema is a potentially life-threatening adverse effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. Bradykinin and substance P, substrates of angiotensin-converting enzyme, increase vascular permeability and cause tissue edema in animals. Studies indicate that amino-terminal degradation of these peptides, by aminopeptidase P and dipeptidyl peptidase IV, may be impaired in individuals with ...
BACKGROUND Hereditary angioedema, a rare and potentially life-threatening condition, is the result of a defect in the C1 esterase inhibitor. Primary care physicians should be familiar with this condition to avoid complications and improve quality of care. METHODS We present two cases of hereditary angioedema followed by a discussion based on a literature review of the recent guidelines and ad...
Angioedema is a rare adverse reaction of carbamazepine, which causes localized tissue edema in submucosal and subcutaneous tissue mediated by histamine, serotonin, and kinins (bradykinin). We report a case of 34-year-old female who developed angioedema, 24 h after administration of carbamazepine for treating bipolar disorder. Patient's symptoms responded rapidly with antihistamine therapy and w...
Angioedema of the upper airways is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition. The incidence has been increasing in the past two decades, primarily due to pharmaceuticals influencing the generation or degradation of the vasoactive molecule bradykinin. Plasma-derived C1-esterase inhibitor concentrate is a well-established treatment option of hereditary and acquired complement C1-esteras...
Angioedema is the swelling of the mucosal membranes as a variant of urticaria induced by hereditary C1 esterase inhibitor enzyme deficiency, certain foods, or drugs. Herein, we report the case of a 23-year-old woman, with mild-moderate acne presenting with widespread facial angioedema on the 2nd day of systemic isotretinoin treatment. The patient had taken no drugs other than isotretinoin in th...
The genetic deficiency of the C1 inhibitor is responsible for hereditary angioedema (HAE), which is a disease transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. More than 200 point mutations in the C1 inhibitor gene have been found to be associated with HAE. Patients with this disease suffer from recurrent angioedema, which is mediated by bradykinin derived from activation of the contact system. This ...
