Angioedema may occur in isolation, accompanied by urticaria, or as a component of anaphylaxis
Chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU), also known as chronic spontaneous urticaria, is characterized by the presence of hives on most days of the week, for 6 weeks or longer, without an identifiable or consistent cause
It is defined as a nonfamilial, nonhereditary AE where other known causes of AE have been excluded and is refractory to antihistamine treatment [ 1 ]
However, limited evidence guides the treatment of CSU after maximal therapy with antihistamines fails
