Kimura's disease is endemic in Orientals. The pathogenesis of Kimura's disease is currently unknown, and the methods of treatment are undefined. The patient was a 21-year-old male, suffering from neck mass left over the parotid region of which the mass gradually increased and which combined with lymphadenopathy and pruritus over both lower limbs more than two years. The patient was diagnosed with Kimura's disease by neck lymph node biopsy, then received simple excision of mass and oral prednisolone therapy. The symptoms of lymphadenopathy and pruritus were improved without recurrence of neck mass.
