Abstrakt: Introduction: Orolingual angioedema (OA) after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) with alteplase in acute stroke can be a life-threatening complication. Our aim was to describe its incidence, clinical features, and related factors. Patients and methods: We analyzed a single-center cohort of stroke patients treated with IVT in an 8-year period. We compared patients with (OA+) and without OA (OA−). A meta-analysis of previous studies was performed to identify factors related with OA. Results: OA occurred in 7 out of 512 patients (1.37%; 95% CI 0.86–1.88%). Previous hypertension, diabetes, and treatment with ACE inhibitors were more frequent in OA+ compared to OA− patients (100% vs 58%, p = 0.045; 71.4% vs 21.8%, p = 0.008; and 71.4% vs. 16.6%, p = 0.002). Three out of 4 cases with unilateral OA had a contralateral insular infarct. The meta-analysis included 13 studies: 5720 stroke patients treated with IVT and 209 cases of OA. Factors related with OA were ACE inhibitor treatment (RR 5.33 [95% CI 3.07–9.26]) female sex (RR 1.94 [95% CI 1.24–3.03]), hypertension (RR 2.64 [95% CI 1.79–3.90]), diabetes (RR 1.60 [95% CI 1.16–2.21]), and dyslipidemia (RR 1.46 [95% CI 1.00–2.12]). The effect of insular infarct was inconclusive: positive when considering complete infarcts (RR 1.97 [95% CI 1.18–3.29]) and absent when partial infarcts were also included. Conclusions: OA occurred in 1.37% of the IVT-treated stroke patients. Previous treatment with ACE inhibitors, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and female sex were associated with OA. The effect of insular infarct needs to be clarified in further studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
