Abstract :Kimura hastalığı nedeni bilinmeyen, benign kronik enflamatuar hastalıktır. İlk kez 1937 yılında Kimm ve Szeto tarafından bildirilmiş ve eozinofilik hiperplastik lenfogranuloma olarak adlandırılmıştır. 1948 yılında Kimura ve arkadaşları tarafından etraflıca tanımlanmış ve Kimura hastalığı olarak literatürde yerini almıştır. Baş boyun bölgesinde lenfadenopati veya kitle şeklinde karşımıza çıkar ve germinal merkezleri belirgin lenfoid foliküller ve eozinofilik infiltrasyon ile karakterizedir. Oldukça nadir görülen bir hastalık olup klinik ve histopatolo-jik olarak diğer enflamatuar hastalıklar ve maligniteler ile karışabilir. Yazımızda Kimura hastalığı tanısı konan bir olgunun histopatolojik ve klinik özellikleri ilgili literatür eşliğinde tartışılmıştır. Kimura Disease: Case Report Kimura disease is a benign chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. It was firstly reported by Kimm and Szeto in 1937 and was termed as eosinophilic hyperplastic lymp ho granuloma. The definitive description was published by Kimura et al in 1948 and took its place as Kimura disease in the literature. It appears as a lymphadenopathy or mass in the region of head and neck and chracterized by prominent germinal centers and eosinophilic infiltration.This condition is very rare and its true importance lies in its ability to mimic a number of other inflammatory and neoplastic conditions. In our report h i s t o p a t o l o g i c a l and clinical features of a case diagnosed as Kimura disease were discussed with the literature findings.
