Abstract
|
|
|
Kimura's disase of the extremity has not been reported in Korean literature. The patient was 11 year old male, having palpable mass in the subcutaneous tissue of nis left elbow that was painless and had grown slowly for 4 years.
Laboratory findings revealed marked eosinophilia and elevated serum IgE level. Histo-pathologically, it was characterized by the eosinophilic folliculolysis with diffuse massive eosinophilic infiltration, and increased number of small thin-walled
blood
vessels, but blood vessels with histiocytoid or epithelioid endothelial cells were not observed.
We report this rare case with a review of the literature.
