Abstract

|
|
Kimura¡¯s disease is a chronic inflammatory soft tissue disorder with peripheral eosinophila and high serum IgE. It might be associated with nephrotic syndrome. We report a 6-year-old boy with Kimura¡¯s disease and the concurrent steroid dependant minimal change nephrotic syndrome. With levamisole treatment fot 24 months, tumor progression and relapse of the associated nephrotic syndrome were not observed.
