Coming soonChronic idiopathic urticaria, also referred to as chronic spontaneous urticaria, is an inflammatory dermatologic condition characterized by the recurrent appearance of pruritic wheals, angioedema, or both for six weeks or longer without an identifiable external trigger or allergic cause.
Primarily affecting adults and more frequently occurring in females, the disorder impacts the cutaneous and mucosal systems.
Pathophysiologically, it is driven by the activation and degranulation of skin mast cells and basophils, which release histamine, leukotrienes, and other proinflammatory mediators.
This mediator release leads to localized vasodilation, increased microvascular permeability, and sensory nerve activation, frequently mediated by autoimmune mechanisms involving autoantibodies against immunoglobulin E or its high-affinity receptor.
