An unusual case of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) simulating port-wine stain in a 50-year-old woman is reported. The lesions of ALHE are typically papules or subcutaneous masses that range from light pink to red-brown in color. In addition to the usual histologic findings of ALHE, the biopsy in our patient showed some fibrin-like material and fibrous long-spacing collagen on...

must be used with caution in patients with altered liver function. The common side effects of aprepitant include hiccup, fatigue, constipation, headache, and anorexia. In summary, we have presented the case of a patient in whom aprepitant was used successfully to treat refractory pruritus secondary to cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. This treatment produced a marked improvement in patient’s quality o...

BACKGROUND Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) and Kimura's Disease (KD) share many clinical and histopathological features. Although they were once considered different stages of the same disease, they are now known to represent separate entities. Recently, ALHE is being called epithelioid hemangioma (EH), a term that better describes the possible neoplastic nature of the entity...
