ABSTRACT
Kimura disease (KD) is a rare benign chronic inflammatory disease that presents as a nodule mostly involving deep subcutaneous tissue of the head and neck region with frequent regional lymphadenopathy and peripheral blood eosinophilia. KD shares some clinical and histopathological similarity with angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE). Consequently, KD and ALHE were once considered variants of the same disease spectrum. We present here rare cases of Kimura disease and ALHE involving the eyelid and lacrimal gland and discuss their differential features.
