Abstract
|
|
|
|
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia(Kimura’s disease) is a relatively uncommon chronic benign disorder of unknown etiology, predominantly in the head and neck region and associated with lymphadenopathy or salivary gland enlargement. The treatment options are still controversial including medical therapy, surgery, and radiation. Kimura’s disease of bilateral postauricular involvement has rarely been reported. We report a male patient with sequentially developed Kimura’s disease involving the bilateral postauricular region and was treated by combined surgical excision and steroid therapy.
