ABSTRACT

SVCS may present with periorbital and facial edema just like angioedema, especially at early stages. SVCS, which is frequently associated with malignancies like lung cancer and lymphoma, may be overlooked, patients may be diagnosed and treated as angioedema and the underlying disease is omitted. Our patients were referred to dermatology department as having angioedema but the diagnosis turned out to be SVCS associated with underlying malignancies.
