ABSTRACT
Episodic angioedema with eosinophilia was described by Gleich, et al. as a distinct entity characterized by recurrent angioedema, urticaria, leukocytoeis with remarkable eosinophilia, fever and periadically increased body weight. Since then, several cases of this disorder have been reported in the United States, Europe and Japan. We present a Korean patient whose clinical, histopathologic, and laboratory findings are consistent with the syndrome of episodic angioedema with eosinophilia. This case supports the previous study that revealed some differences between Asian and Caucasian patients.
