Urticaria is one of the most common dermatological and
allergological cutaneous reactions and, compared to other diseases,
it is easily recognized by patients and physicians alike.
Nevertheless, the disease is highly complex regarding its eliciting
causes, its clinical manifestations and its therapy. Thus, a famous
New York dermatologist once mentioned that he would rather have a
lion than a patient with chronic urticaria walk into his office.
This may seem surprising since, to the uninitiated, different types
of urticaria look alike, and the pathomechanisms are rather well
understood, with mast cells being almost invariably the main
effector cells. In 1986, a monograph of the first editor (Prof.
Czarnetzki, now with the married name Henz) appeared, giving a
detailed and thorough review of the then current state of knowledge
regarding all aspects of the disease. Since then, two updates of
this book have appeared in the German language, with coworkers of
the clinic of Prof. Henz helping in the revision of the various
chapters of the old monograph, and with particular emphasis on
practical aspects of the disease. The present book is mainly a
translation of the second German edition, with only minor updates
and with more citations from the literature since the 1986
monograph is no longer available for purchase.
