“… 5 Patients often display eosinophilia on complete blood count in addition to lymphadenopathy. Rare occurrences of Kimura disease in African males have been previously reported in the epiglottis 6 and hard palate. 7 There have also been cases with associated pruritus with lesions of Kimura disease in older patients.…”

Kimura's disease is a rare chronic affection of unknown etiology, endemic in the far east with a net male predominance. We present the case of a 37-year-old female patient who developed a tumor process in the left parotid region over a period of 3 years. A total left parotidectomy was performed with simple postoperative course. The anatomopathological study of the surgical specimen was in favor of Kimura's disease. Through this case and a review of the literature, we present the main clinical, anatomopathological, therapeutic and evolutionary characteristics of this rare disease.

“…Also given the insidious installation mode of the lesion, its painless and soft character, its chronic course and the absence of constitutional symptoms, benign soft tissue tumor in particular lipoma, cannot be excluded formally to clinic. Exceptional locations have been described [8]- [11] in particular palate, parotid, orbital and members. Kyung-Jim Song [10] reported the case of Kimura's disease diffuse on arm and Manish [11] reported a femoral localization of the disease.…”

Kimura's disease, common pathology in the East, responsible of chronic neck swelling is rarely reported in sub-Saharan Africa. We reported a case which was observed in the internal medicine department of Aristide Le Dantec hospital in Dakar. This was a young 15-year-old, with no particular disease history, who had recurrent non-inflammatory swelling next to the left zygomatic bone associated with itching. Biology revealed an inflammatory syndrom, eosinophilia and increased serum IgE. The histological examination of the mass biopsy concluded to Kimura disease. The corticosteroid has reduced the size of the mass within a few weeks of treatment. Kimura's disease is unknown in our regions. His painless character and chronic evolution delay the time of diagnosis. This case proves the reality of this disease, which must find a place in the diagnosis approach of cervical swelling.
