Abstract:
A 31-year-old black male experienced severe recurrent urticaria and angioedema during meals. An abnormal sialographic pattern indicated submandibular sialoadenitis, and surgical excision of the gland resulted in complete resolution of the urticaria. This report describes the association of sialoadenitis and urticaria and possible mechanisms involved.
