“…Since HAE could be included in any differential diagnosis of acute abdominal pain, the long latency period leads to an increased number of invasive medical procedures and failed attempts to diagnose or treat the patients' ailments. Many case reports from various countries report patients with acute abdominal HAE attacks who have been "treated" with visceral surgery due to misdiagnosis (e. g. acute colitis, appendicitis, cholecystitis) [24][25][26] . To our knowledge, our analysis is the fi rst to compare the occurrence of invasive procedures in HAE patients with that in the general population.…”

“…Da das HAE eine Differenzialdiagnose bei sämtlichen Formen akuter Bauchschmerzen sein kann, führt die lange Latenzphase zu einer erhöhten Zahl invasiver medizinischer Verfahren und fehlgeschlagener Versuche, die Erkrankung zu diagnostizieren oder die Beschwerden der Patienten zu behandeln. Viele Kasuistiken aus verschiedenen Ländern berichten über Patienten mit akuten abdominalen HAE-Attacken, die aufgrund einer Fehldiagnose (wie akute Kolitis, Appendizitis, Cholezystitis) durch viszeral-chirurgische Eingriffe "behandelt" wurden [24][25][26] . Unseres Wissens ist unsere Studie die erste, die die Häufi gkeit invasiver Verfahren bei HAE-Patienten mit der in der Allgemeinbevölkerung vergleicht.…”

“…An isolated intestinal angioedema is even less common but can lead to a great morbidity [1][2][3]. It can have several etiologies, from hereditary to a drug reaction, especially from angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) [1]. Its incidence is rising due to the increased use of these drugs, occurring in up to 1% of patients with angioedema [4][5][6][7].…”

“…Angioedema with evidence of mucosal swelling is a rare condition that can occur in any part of the body. An isolated intestinal angioedema is even less common but can lead to a great morbidity [ 1 - 3 ]. It can have several etiologies, from hereditary to a drug reaction, especially from angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) [ 1 ].…”
