摘要
We report the first case of aquagenic urticaria in a patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, This is a rare physical urticaria not previously described in this context, The disorder proved unamenable to conventional treatment with antihistamines, but did respond dramatically to stanozolol, suggesting a novel indication for this anabolic steroid.
