Kimura's disease: an unusual cause of cervical tumor.
Medical Journal of Malaysia 2005 August
Kimura's disease (KD) is an angiolymphoid proliferative disease of soft tissue with peripheral blood eosinophilia and elevated serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E. The treatment options range from conservative observation for the asymptomatic patient to surgical excision, steroid therapy and radiotherapy for symptomatic patients. Surgical excision is the most common diagnostic measure and is the treatment of choice. A case of KD in a 13-year-old Malay girl is presented. Clinically there was painless right jugular digastric mass measuring 3cm by 3cm. Her blood investigation showed pronounced eosinophilia. She underwent excision biopsy uneventfully. The biopsy from the swelling showed reactive follicular hyperplasic with prominent eosinophilia. There was no evidence of malignant change. Postoperatively after 3 years follow up, she was asymptomatic and no signs of tumor recurrence.
