Abstract
Kimura's disease is a rare, chronic inflammatory disorder affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissue, predominantly in the head and neck region. It is benign but may be recurrent and difficult to eradicate. A case of recurrent Kimura disease in a 53-year-old man was reported. Radiation therapy was performed for recurrence after surgical excision twice. The prescribed radiation dose was 36 Gy. With a follow-up time of 68 months, the patient was free of the disease.Entities:
