Angioedema when occurring without hives (urticaria) can be classified into tow main categories: acquired angioedema and hereditary angioedema.

Hereditary angioedema occurs due to deficiency of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH). Hereditary angioedema is further categorized into three types i.e. type I HAE, type II HAE and type III HAE. First two forms cannot be distinguished clinically whereas the third one occurs in females only.

Acquired angioedema has been classified into two types: type I or type II. It occurs as a result of certain auto-antibodies (autoimmune causes) that take action on the protease which results an increased consumption of C1-INH.

Angioedema accompanied by hives (urticaria) is usually a hypersensitivity reaction to certain offending agents e.g. allergens, extreme temperatures. A fluid called histamine is released into the bloodstream by the mast cells which results in an increased endothelial cell permeability.
