Abstract: | A swelling in the anterior neck in an individual who had reportedly undergone previous thyroid surgery for a tumour of the thyroid gland, clinically suggested a diagnosis of recurrent thyroid neoplasm. Excision biopsy of an enlarged supraclavicular node established the diagnosis of Kimura’s disease. The clinicopathological features of this rare disorder are discussed. |
