Hereditary angioedema (HAE) caused by C1-esterase inhibitor deficiency is an autosomal-dominant disease caused by a mutation in the C1-inhibitor gene. It is a rare disease that is often worsened during pregnancy and childbirth. HAE, though uncommon but if untreated it may lead to maternal death.  The case report presents the successful management of a 24 years old, G2P1, with hereditary angioedema caused by C1-esterase inhibitor deficiency. This patient was managed with a multidisciplinary approach by an obstetrician, an immunologist, an anaesthesiologist and a pediatrician. She had an uneventful antenatal period, labor was induced. She had precipitate delivery and soon after delivery had a flare up of the disease. It was successfully managed with fresh frozen plasma and close observation.

Angioedema related to deficiency of the C1- esterase inhibitor protein (C1-inh) is characterized by lack of response to therapies, which include antihistamines, steroids and epinephrine. In case of laryngeal edema, mortality rate is an estimated mammoth 30 percent. The first case of such acquired form of angioedema related to the deficiency in C1- esterase inhibitor was published in 1972. In the present case, we entail details of one such case.,

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition caused by deficiency of C1 esterase inhibitor. It is characterized by subcutaneous swelling in any part of the skin, gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. We present the case of a pregnant woman with known HAE that deteriorated during pregnancy with frequent attacks that were managed successfully with danazol, tranexamic acid and regular intravenous administration of C1 esterase inhibitor.
