Studies reveal how hereditary angioedema disrupts the lives of children and families

Two new studies being presented at the 2025 American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando shed light on how hereditary angioedema (HAE) – a rare, potentially life-threatening disease which causes unpredictable swelling – profoundly affects the daily lives, emotional wellbeing, and medical experiences of young patients and their caregivers.
