This case report underscores the effective implementation of a delivery plan for a pregnant patient, focusing on a successful case study where a cesarean section, preceded by the pre-treatment of intravenous plasma-derived C1 inhibitor, resulted in the delivery of a healthy baby. The proposed delivery plan offers a systematic approach to managing hereditary angioedema during pregnancy. It recommends opting for delivery at an academic center equipped with high-risk obstetric care, obstetric anesthesia, and a level 4 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The plan also emphasizes the importance of early admission at the onset of labor and delineates specific protocols for both vaginal and cesarean deliveries.
