Abstract
Patients with urticaria and angioedema admitted to CHMC were analyzed. The most common etiologic factor for the urticaria was infection (in 45% of the cases), while drugs or medications were responsible in 10% of patients. Almost half of the children received corticosteroids for the treatment of their urticaria.
