AB  - Kimura disease has been known as a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown 
      etiology, since the first report in 1937 and characterized by an increased 
      eosinophil fraction in peripheral blood, increased serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) 
      levels, and lymphoid granuloma with eosinophilic infiltration on 
      histopathological examination. The authors present a 30-year-old man who visited 
      their clinic with a 3-month history of protrusion and conjunctival injection of 
      the right eye. Surgical mass resection was performed, and initial histopathology 
      revealed Kimura disease. Additional immunohistochemical examination revealed 
      IgG4-related disease in another hospital, which showed more than 80 IgG4-positive 
      plasma cells per high-power field and an IgG4+/IgG+ ratio more than 40%. There 
      are histopathological similarities, and several reports have suggested a 
      relationship between Kimura disease and IgG4-related disease. Thus, it is 
      difficult to classify them as completely different diseases. Kimura disease and 
      IgG4 can be considered a part of a clinical spectrum of abnormal immune 
      reactions.
