The Challenges in the Follow-Up and Treatment of Brazilian Children with Hereditary Angioedema

Conclusions: This is the first study on HAE pediatric patients in Latin America. Clinical manifestations were similar to adults. Drugs such as androgens and tranexamic acid were indicated off-label, probably due to restricted access to specific drugs. Educational programs should address pediatricians to reduce late diagnosis and tailored child therapy.Int Arch Allergy Immunol
