[Cerebral manifestations in angioneurotic edema (author's transl)].
Two patients with hereditary angioneurotic edema are described. A female patient, born in 1929, showed an infarction in the area of the right posterior cerebral artery, verified by computer tomography. The son of this patient, aged 20 years, suffered from a transitory ischemic attack and a prolonged reversible ischemic neurological deficit, both in the territory of the left middle cerebral artery. Etiology, symptomatology, therapy, and differential diagnosis of cerebral manifestations in angioneurotic edema are discussed in view of previously described cases.
