Abstract

Aquagenic urticaria (AU) is a rare disorder, and to be diagnosed other types of physical urticarias must be excluded. In this case report, clinical aspects, investigational methodology, and finally some considerations for the treatment of AU are reviewed, with special attention given to the good response to hydroxyzine in this case, the first one described in Brazil.
