چکیده
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is an uncommon idiopathic condition that manifests in adults as isolated or grouped papules, plaques, or nodules in the skin of the head and neck. It manifests with lesions in the periauricular region, forehead, or scalp. Rare sites include the hands, shoulders, breasts, penis, oral mucosa, and orbit. We have come across a case of ALHE in our hospital with the patient presenting popular lesions on the skin of the neck and head.
