SummaryA man in 30s had complaints of glabellar and upper nasal swelling for 8 years. It was insidious in onset and gradually progressive causing epiphora and restriction of nasal visual field. Fine-needle aspiration cytology and biopsy revealed features which were suggestive of Kimura's disease (KD). CT scans showed a well-defined subcutaneous swelling in the naso-orbito-ethmoid (NOE) region. KD presents as lymphoglandular swelling; however, NOE region is an uncommon site of occurrence. A thyroid-shaped tumour was excised by H-shaped incision approach to the NOE region.
摘要
一位 30 多岁的男性患者，有额部和上鼻肿胀的症状 8 年。该症状隐匿起病且逐渐加重，导致溢泪和鼻视野受限。细针抽吸细胞学和活检显示符合 Kimura 病（KD）的特征。CT 扫描显示在鼻眶额筛（NOE）区域有一个界限清楚的皮下肿胀。KD 表现为淋巴结肿胀；然而，NOE 区域是一个不常见的发病部位。通过 H 形切口对 NOE 区域进行手术，切除了一个呈甲状腺形状的肿瘤。
