Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia: Simultaneous presence of lesions of two different morphologies

Abstract

Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a rare vascular tumor which presents as a dermal papule or a nodule over the head-and-neck region. Histopathologically, there is vascular proliferation in the upper dermis and diffuse lymphocytic infiltrate with eosinophilia. Kimura's disease is the closest differential of ALHE, which presents as subcutaneous nodules. We report a case of ALHE presenting with a violaceous papule overlying a subcutaneous nodule, histopathologically; both lesions were diagnosed as ALHE.
