Abstract

Red ants' sting anaphylaxis was rarely reported from India. But angioedema due to ingestion of fried 'flying red fire ants' in children is almost never reported from India and also very rarely reported from outside India. We report a case of recurrent non allergic angioedema following ingestion of fried flying red ants. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
