Abstract.

We describe the imaging features of a 53-year-old Chinese patient with Kimura's disease (KD) who presented with a dominant right-cheek subcutaneous mass. The lesion appeared as an ill-defined mass within the subcutaneous tissues with a "wooly" echotexture on US. The differential diagnosis and a review of the literature are discussed.
