Abstract

Non-allergic angioedema has a worrying morbidity. Clinical examination is central, as C1-esterase inhibitor deficiency will not be documented in the acute phase. In the case of anaphylaxis that does not respond to adrenaline, an early diagnosis can optimise referral of the patient to a reference healthcare establishment for a specific therapeutic protocol (icatibant, C1 inhibitor) recently updated by recommendations.

Keywords: C1-INH; angioedema; angioneurotic; angioneurotique; angiœdème; bradykinin; bradykinine; hereditary; histamine; héréditaire; icatibant.
