Hereditary angioedema (hereditary C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency) is an "inherited disorder that is characterized by subcutaneous and submucosal edema in the upper respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract."[1]

Unregulated kallikrein activation of bradykinin may cause hereditary angioedema:[2]

Diagnosis

Hereditary deficiency is characterized by the absence of urticaria and by normal levels of complement C1q and complement C1 inhibitor protein function.[7] complement C1 inhibitor protein antigen is low in type I and normal in type II.

Treatment

Options, such as complement C1 inhibitor protein concentrate, exist for preventing attacks.[8]
