Eosinophilic granuloma (Kimura's disease) occurring in the parotid gland of a 37 years old male and its histopathological findings were examined.
Histologically the lesion can be separated from Letterer-Siwe disease, Hand-Schüller-Christian disease and Eosinophilic granuloma of the bone (Otani & Ehrlich) on account of the appearance of many prominent lymphatic nodules in the former case, in which develope germinal centers not only in the parotid gland but in the adjacent soft tissue.
It seems to be an interesting and important fact that the disease has never been reported about Europeans and Americans.
