This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Kimura disease (KD) is a rare idiopathic condition that presents as solitary or multiple painless subcutaneous masses in the head and neck region. It may also involve extracutaneous sites, such as regional lymph nodes, major salivary glands, and the kidneys.1 Most cases reported occurred in Asian men between 20 and 30 years of age.2 Treatment is often sought for symptomatic relief and cosmetic concerns. Therapeutic modalities for KD include surgical excision, radiotherapy, and various immunomodulating agents, such as oral corticosteroids, cyclosporine, and leflunomide.
