Abstract
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a benign vascular proliferative condition, typically presenting as subcutaneous nodules in the head and neck region of middle-aged women. Kimura disease (KD) is a benign condition that presents with subcutaneous nodules in a similar distribution with lymphadenopathy and eosinophilia, typically in Asian adult males. These diseases are often discussed together, including whether they exist on a spectrum or if they represent separate disease entities. Both are very rare in the pediatric population; in this report we highlight the case of a 10-year-old Caucasian male presenting with ALHE and KD.
