Hereditary angioedema is a rare genetic condition causing episodes of angioedema-including life-threatening laryngeal oedema. Episodes can be unpredictable, or triggered by factors such as trauma, drugs or dental treatment. When faced with a patient with a fractured mandible, who has had a severe attack of angioedema when prescribed either ibuprofen or codeine based analgesia, this required an alternative approach to analgesia. Using a catheter and local anaesthesia, we were able to keep the patient comfortable, and pain free.
遗传性血管性水肿是一种罕见的遗传性疾病,可引发血管性水肿发作,包括危及生命的喉头水肿。发作可能不可预测,或由创伤、药物或牙科治疗等因素引发。当面对一名下颌骨骨折的患者时,该患者在服用布洛芬或含可待因的镇痛药时曾发生严重的血管性水肿发作,这就需要采用另一种镇痛方法。我们使用导管和局部麻醉,成功让患者感到舒适且无痛。
