Differential Diagnosis of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
Patients with chronic recurrent wheals most commonly receive the diagnosis of chronic spontaneous urticaria, although a number of autoimmune, autoinflammatory, and malignant diseases can be suspected based on certain red flags. These warning signs are a wheal duration of more than 24 hours, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and systemic symptoms such as arthralgia and fever and/or elevated inflammatory markers. Here, we detail the case of an adult patient who initially received the diagnosis of chronic spontaneous urticaria, discussing possible differential diagnoses and outlining options for treating the patient once a diagnosis has been established. We highlight the need for a careful examination of laboratory and histologic findings and other investigations, including serum immunofixation electrophoresis and genetic testing.
期刊介绍:
JACI: In Practice is an official publication of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI). It is a companion title to The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, and it aims to provide timely clinical papers, case reports, and management recommendations to clinical allergists and other physicians dealing with allergic and immunologic diseases in their practice. The mission of JACI: In Practice is to offer valid and impactful information that supports evidence-based clinical decisions in the diagnosis and management of asthma, allergies, immunologic conditions, and related diseases.
This journal publishes articles on various conditions treated by allergist-immunologists, including food allergy, respiratory disorders (such as asthma, rhinitis, nasal polyps, sinusitis, cough, ABPA, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis), drug allergy, insect sting allergy, anaphylaxis, dermatologic disorders (such as atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, urticaria, angioedema, and HAE), immunodeficiency, autoinflammatory syndromes, eosinophilic disorders, and mast cell disorders.
The focus of the journal is on providing cutting-edge clinical information that practitioners can use in their everyday practice or to acquire new knowledge and skills for the benefit of their patients. However, mechanistic or translational studies without immediate or near future clinical relevance, as well as animal studies, are not within the scope of the journal.
