Chronic Urticaria in Children: A Single-Center Retrospective Study From Turkey.
The studies on childhood chronic urticaria (CU) are limited. We aimed to investigate the epidemiological and etiological factors of children with CU. Demographic characteristics, laboratory findings, and etiological factors of patients diagnosed with CU younger than the age of 18 were retrospectively evaluated. Of the 124 participants, 68 (54.8%) were aged 12 and older. Angioedema accompanied 18.5% of the patients. Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) was found in 75%, while 24.2% had chronic inducible urticaria. Symptomatic dermographism (16.1%) was the most common among chronic inducible urticaria, followed by cholinergic urticaria (4.8%). No etiological factor could be detected in 56.5% of the children. Infections (29.8%) were the most common etiological factor, followed by drugs (8%). Dental problems (16.9%) were the primary infections associated with CU. Chronic urticaria prevalence in children increased with age, with CSU being the most common type. Infections played a significant role in childhood CU.
