Klipp fra presse/media Web-ansvar: I nformasjonsleder Randi Angelsen og spesialsykepleier Knut Dybwik Previous: Abbreviations Introduction Hereditary angioedema Quincke first described and named angioneurotic edema (1), the striking influence of mental stress on the disorder led to the term neurotic which now is abandoned as the genetic cause is known. Nathaniel Hawthorne was apparently familiar with this disorder for in his 'House of the Seven Gables' (2), he describes the Pyncheon family with members who gurgled in the throat and chest when excited and who would sometimes die this way, ever since a curse to choke on blood had been placed on one of their ancestors. The following passages could indicate that Hawthorne recognised that a hereditary disease, not a curse, was responsible for the deaths: "This mode of death has been an idiosyncrasy with his family, for generations past" and "the curse,.. had become a part of the Pyncheon inheritance" (3). Persons with hereditary angiodema are victims of recurrent bouts of edema which may occur in nearly every part of the body (Fig. 1 - 3). Attacks typically last for 2 to 5 days. The disease has been reviewed in several papers (4-11).

Joynt Victor Abdullah Peter J. Wormald Abstract Hereditary angioedema is caused by an absolute deficiency or the functional inactivity of CI esterase inhibitor in plasma. A precise diagnosis is important because, unlike allergic forms of mucocutaneous edema, this condition does not respond to epinephrine, antihistamines, or corticosteroids. We report the case of a 24-year-old man who experienced an acute attack after he had stopped taking his prophylactic medication. Introduction Hereditary angioedema is caused by an absolute deficiency or the functional inactivity of C1 esterase inhibitor in plasma. It is characterized by a recurrent, circumscribed, nonpitting, subepithelial edema involving any part of the body. [1] Cutaneous lesions are usually well circumscribed, although circumoral edema sometimes spreads to the contiguous mucosa. Pain and pruritus beyond that caused by distention of the skin and subcutaneous tissue are unusual. Visceral involvement is manifested by severe colic followed by watery diarrhea, which usually occurs late in the course of the disease. [2] Hereditary angioedema presenting as a recurrent airway obstruction caused by laryngeal edema is rare and potentially fatal. [1-3]

This potentially fatal condition is frequently misdiagnosed; its early recognition and appropriate treatment are thus important. We report a familial cluster of hereditary angioedema in a Chinese family and describe the clinical course of two patients.

General information Disease Hereditary angioedema Alternative names: Angioneurotic edema, hereditary; HANE; C1 esterase inhibitor, deficiency of; Angioedema, hereditary, type I; Angioedema, hereditary, type II, included Description Hereditary angioedema has been known to exist for over a century. The disease has been attributed to a C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency, transmitted as an autosomal dominant condition. Hereditary angioedema is episodic and asymptomatic in most patients. People with hereditary angioedema can develop rapid swelling of the hands, feet, limbs, face, intestinal tract, or airway (larynx or trachea). Classification Defects of Complement Regulatory Proteins OMIM Angioedema, hereditary; HAE Clinical information Description People with hereditary angioedema can develop rapid swelling of the hands, feet, limbs, face, intestinal tract, or airway (larynx or trachea). Hereditary and acquired angioedema are characterized by recurrent episodes of angioedema involving any part of the body. Laryngeal edema is common, and it is the major cause of death. Angioedema of the gastrointestinal tract frequently may mimic an acute abdomen, resulting in unnecessary surgery. The emergency physician should be aware of these conditions and should initiate prompt treatment in order to avoid unnecessary morbidity and death.

Salzer, M.D. Angioedema is a problem that relates to the specialty of otolaryngology because its symptoms manifest most often in the head and neck, often in dramatic form. The term angioedema is used to describe several closely related diseases that manifest by recurrent acute edema of the skin and mucosa. The most serious manifestation of the disease is laryngeal edema which can be fatal. Hereditary angioedema is rare, but knowledge of its mechanism allows diagnosis and initiation of potentially lifesaving therapy. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors account for an increasing proportion of angioedema cases as the popularity of the drug class grows. Angioedema is characterized by subcutaneous edema resulting from increased vascular permeability, dilation of venules and capillaries and separation of collagen bundles. This is in distinction to urticaria which is limited to the superficial dermis. A history of atopy can be elicited in 15% patients.
