Hereditary angioedema is an "inherited disorder that is characterized by subcutaneous and submucosal edema in the upper respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract."[1]

Unregulated kallikrein activation of bradykinin may cause hereditary angioedema:[2]

  • Hereditary angioedema types I and II are due to insufficient activity of complement C1 inhibitor protein (C1 esterase inhibitor).
  • Hereditary angioedema type III may due to increased activity of coagulation factor XII (Hageman factor).[3][4]
