Patients with HAE and comorbidities
Prof. Dr. Petra Staubach-Renz
Comorbidities can affect the course of HAE and can influence a patient’s treatment plan.

Dr Hakl presents a difficult case of a female patient with a family history of HAE, a BMI of 37, and a history of recurrent attacks, ranging from irregular to over 80 per year. This case highlights how symptoms can vary widely in frequency, location, and severity, emphasizing that treatment plans should be tailored for each patient.
