Urticaria and angioedema are common conditions. This review covers their causes, diagnosis, and management strategies for chronic and acute cases.

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Urticaria and angioedema are prevalent outpatient conditions.
  • Their development involves intricate cellular and humoral mechanisms.
  • Diagnosis relies on symptom history, triggers, and atopy assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review physical and hereditary syndromes associated with urticaria and angioedema.
  • To discuss therapeutic approaches based on symptom duration and severity.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of physical and hereditary syndromes.
  • Analysis of diagnostic criteria based on patient history.
  • Evaluation of treatment strategies for varying symptom profiles.

Main Results:

  • Many factors can cause urticaria and angioedema, but specific causes remain unidentified in most chronic instances.
  • Physical and hereditary syndromes represent distinct etiological categories.
  • Treatment efficacy varies with symptom duration and severity.
  • Conclusions:

    • Effective management of urticaria and angioedema requires a thorough diagnostic approach.
    • Therapeutic regimens should be tailored to individual patient needs and disease characteristics.
    • Further research into the pathogenesis of chronic urticaria and angioedema is warranted.
