Kimura's disease is a relatively rare disease characterized by the presence of indolent masses in the soft tissues subcutaneous swellings throughout the body, with an increase in the peripheral blood eosinophil counts and raised serum IgE levels. Surgical treatment, drug therapy, and radiation therapy have been used as treatments, but the disease often recurs. We encountered a case of Giant Kimura's disease and present the case herein, with some review of the literature. Although no reliably effective treatment has been established yet for Kimura's disease, it seems that combined treatment with oral steroids, radiation, and surgery may represent an appropriate approach.
