The peri-operative management of patients with hereditary angioedema requiring dental treatment: a case series

Hereditary angioedema is a rare genetic disorder causing recurrent, potentially life-threatening swelling episodes, often triggered by dental procedures. Swellings resemble anaphylaxis, but pathophysiology and therefore management is distinctly different. This case series presents the management of four patients, emphasising multidisciplinary planning and highlighting the importance of awareness among dental professionals.
