Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia(Kimura's disease) is a relatively uncommon chronic benign disorder of unknown etiology, predominantly in the head and neck region and associated with lymphadenopathy or salivary gland enlargement. The treatment options are still controversial including medical therapy, surgery, and radiation. Kimura's disease of bilateral postauricular involvement has rarely been reported. We report a male patient with sequentially developed Kimura's disease involving the bilateral postauricular region and was treated by combined surgical excision and steroid therapy.

기무라씨병은 종괴를 형성하는 원인 불명의 흔치 않는 만성 염증성 질환으로서 동양인에서 자주 이환되며 특히 젊은 남자에서 호발된다. 호발 장소는 주로 두경부이며, 일차적으로 피하 조직과 진피에 발생된다. 비교적 양호한 경과를 보이며, 그 치료 방법으로는 수술적 절제술, 스테로이드 투여법 및 방사선 조사 등이 있다. 저자들은 우측 상완부에 발생한 무통성의 비교적 유동성이 있는 연부 조직 종양 1례에 대한 변연부 절제술을 시행하여 병리조직학적으로 기무라씨병으로 확진하였으며, 수술 후 15개월 추시 상 재발 소견은 없었다.

Kimura's disease is a chronic inflammatory disease which often presents as a tumor like swelling in the head and neck region. This lesion is benign but it may easily be mistaken for a malignant tumor. Kimura's disease has been confused with angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia(ALHE). The cause is unknown, but theories include autoimmune, allergic, neoplastic, and infectious cause by insect bites and parasites. The treatment of choice is surgical removal. Recently we experienced a case of Kimura's disease occuring in the both side of posterior neck triangle area of a 37 year old male patient who was treated with surgical excision and systemic corticosteroid administration.
