Abstract
Angioedema can be induced by either bradykinin or histamine. Histamine-induced angioedema is often associated with urticaria, which is not present in its bradykinin-induced counterpart. This chapter utilizes case-based scenarios to describe the diagnostic evaluations and treatments for both, as recommended by current guidelines.
