dc.description.abstractHereditary angioedema is due to deficiency of C1 esterase inhibitor, inherited as an autosomal dominant trait, manifested by recurrent attacks of swelling of the face, trunk, extremities, airway and abdominal viscera. The disease may present with isolated abdominal pain and differential diagnosis should be done with Familial Mediterranean Fever. Our case, 8 years-old-female patient who was admitted with complaint of abdominal pain and vomiting. In history, patients had recurrent abdominal pain and vomiting since her 5th birthday and she was diagnosed with Familial Mediterranean Fever. She was treated with colchicine but had no release from the complaint. Differential diagnosis were done due to patients complaint were not associated with fever, elevated acute phase reactants and had family history of hereditary angioedema (patient's father had diagnosed with hereditary angioedema). Patient was screened for serum C4 and C1 inhibitory level. Diagnosis of hereditary angioedema was confirmed because of low level of C4 and C1 inhibitory concentration.
