Angiolymphoid
hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a benign,
uncommon disorder of unknown etiology, that usunlly
appears as papules or nodules on the head and neck.
Histopathologically, ALHE is a angioproliferating
lesion which shows characteristically plump epithelioid
or histiocytoid endothelial cells, accompanied by
an inflammatory infiltrate that mainly consists
of lymphocytes and eosinophils. We report a case
of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophila associated
with arteriovenous malformations in a 23-year-old
man. In our patient, we observed arteriovenous malformation,
changes which could have occurred by vascular repair
due to a vascular malformation. |
