KD has been described in China and Japan as "eosinophilic hyperplastic lymphogranuloma" or "atypical granulation associated with hyperplastic abnormalities in the lymphoid tissue". The precise prevalence and incidence and the pathogenesis of KD are unknown. Trauma, infection, an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reaction, or autoimmune processes have been postulated as possible causes. In this article, we aimed to present a patient who was investigated with elevated serum total IgE and eosinophils and diagnosed as Kimura disease in the light of the current literature.AllergyJournal article1230233300001Q440184
