AB  - Kimura's disease is a chronic, benign inflammatory condition of the subcutaneous 
      tissue. It presents as painless, subcutaneous nodules of the head and neck, which 
      are firm, painless, and may be single or multiple. It is most commonly seen in 
      young adult Asian men. The nodes remain stable or may slowly enlarge over time. 
      Elevated serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, peripheral blood eosinophilia and 
      lymphoid proliferation with eosinophilic infiltration on histopathological 
      examination are the characteristic features. Spontaneous regression is usually 
      seen. The diagnosis of Kimura's disease can be difficult and misleading, and it 
      is important not to ignore histopathological features.
