Abstract

Background: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a potentially life-threatening disease that remarkably impacts patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study evaluated the HRQoL in children with HAE and compared it with healthy controls and patients with histaminergic angioedema (HA).
