Evaluation of a patient with recurrent episodes of angioedema without hives (urticaria)

Evaluation of a patient with recurrent episodes of angioedema without hives (urticaria)
The algorithm depicts an approach to the diagnosis of hereditary angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency and related angioedema disorders.

AAE-C1INH: acquired angioedema with C1INH deficiency; ACE: angiotensin-converting enzyme; C1INH: C1 inhibitor; C1q: complement component C1q; C4: complement component 4; HAE: hereditary angioedema; NSAID: nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug.

* C4 is usually <50% of normal in patients with HAE-C1INH. If results are not reported as a percentage of normal, then 25 mg is normal in adults, C4 <10 is definitely pathologic, C4 of 10 to 15 is possibly pathologic, and C4 >15 is not pathologic.

¶ Refer to the diagnostic errors discussion within the UpToDate topic on the pathogenesis and diagnosis of hereditary angioedema.

Δ Refer to the differential diagnosis discussion within the UpToDate topic on the pathogenesis and diagnosis of hereditary angioedema.

◊ Mutations in a growing number of genes can cause HAE with normal C1INH. Refer to UpToDate topic on hereditary angioedema with normal C1 inhibitor.
