Description

Angioneurotic edema (Quincke's edema) is characterized by acute subcutaneous or submucosal localization of edema. The exact cause of angioneurotic edema is not known.<br>The patient was a 65-years old-male who was referred to our hospital because of sudden swelling of the tongue. The patient was treated with dripintra-venous (DIV) infusion of antibiotic, and the symptom disappeared. It is considered that psychological factors could have caused the edema in this case, because no other possible causes were identifiable.
