Abstract
Cold urticaria is a form of chronic induced urticaria, which is characterized by the rapid appearance of wheals and/or angioedema as a result of exposure to cold. The article presents a new classification of cold urticaria, methods of diagnosis and therapy of the disease. It presents two clinical cases of patients with cold local and cold contact urticaria which demonstrate the main problems of diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Provocative test with an ice cube did not allow diagnosing individual atypical forms of cold urticaria; elimination measures significantly limited the daily activity of patients, and reduced the quality of life of the patient. Drug therapy allowed achieving complete control over the disease symptoms in one case only.
