| Abstract: | Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a subcutaneous angioproliferating tumor with a characteristic inflammatory infiltrate that consists mainly of lymphocytes and eosinophils. A 24-year-old man presented with a firm single asymptomatic erythematous papule on the lower eyelid. Histopathological findings showed a proliferation of blood vessels lined with epithelioid cells and perivascular infiltration of lymphocytes and eosinophils. We report a case of ALHE occurring on an unusual site. |
