Kimura's disease (KD) is an immune-mediated disorder which mainly affects Asian men. It appears as head and neck subcutaneous masses, with inflammatory infiltrate and elevated serum immunoglobulin E levels. The clinical presentation of KD resembles that of various diseases. Here, we report the case of a 30-year-old Filipino man with KD mimicking cavernous hemangioma who was treated by surgery. Careful survey for possible KD cases is crucial. Misdiagnoses are prone to futile interventions and unwanted effects. Surgery with adjuvant therapy is superior to other forms of KD treatment.
木村病（KD）是一种免疫介导的疾病，主要影响亚洲男性。它表现为头颈部皮下肿块，伴有炎症浸润和血清免疫球蛋白 E 水平升高。KD 的临床表现类似于各种疾病。在这里，我们报告了一例 30 岁菲律宾男性 KD 表现为海绵状血管瘤的病例，该患者接受了手术治疗。仔细调查可能的 KD 病例至关重要。误诊容易导致无效的干预和不必要的影响。手术联合辅助治疗优于其他形式的 KD 治疗。
