Acquired angioedema (AAE) with C1 inhibitor deficiency is often associated to B cell lymphoproliferative disorders or autoimmune diseases. We report a case of AAE associated with IgM anti-cardiolipin antibodies, with frequent edematous attacks, that disappeared completely after a slight immunosuppression and danazol therapy.

We report a case of AAE associated with IgM anti-cardiolipin antibodies, with frequent edematous attacks, that disappeared completely after a slight immunosuppression and danazol therapy.
