[One patient with Kimura's disease and angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia also suffers from kidney injury].

OBJECTIVE

Reporting a rare case with Kimura's disease and angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE), who also has nephrotic syndrome resulting from minimal change glomerulopathy.

METHODS

Histological manifestations, immunohistochemical staining, immunofluorescence staining, and electron microscope were performed.

RESULTS

One 37-year-old male patient with recurrent erythra, cutaneous node, painless cervical lymph node enlargement and nephrotic syndrome in 5 years. It's confirmed through biopsies that the subcutaneous node is ALHE, the cervical lymph node is kimura disease, and renal lesion is minimal change glomerulopathy.

CONCLUSION

Kimura disease and ALHE may be different features of the same disease, and may complicate glomerulopathy.
