A clinicopathological study of Kimura's disease and epithelioid hemangioma.

Yonsei Medical Journal 1990 September
The clinicopathological features of 9 cases of Kimura's disease and 5 cases of epithelioid hemangioma(EH) were reviewed. Patients with Kimura's disease presented with multiple or solitary large tumors occurring in the thigh, arms as well as parotid gland. Histologically, the lesions were characterized by numerous lymphoid follicles with proliferation of post-capillary venules lined by plump endothelium and a marked eosinophilic infiltration. Patients with EH were older than those with Kimura's disease and presented papular nodular lesions, less than 1 cm in size. Microscopically, there was proliferation of blood vessels lined by epithelioid endothelium with infiltration by lymphocytes and eosinophils. Although there may occasionally be clinicopathological overlap between Kimura's disease and EH, we consider that these two disorders can be recognized as separate entities.
