AI Article Synopsis
- Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a rare, non-cancerous growth that appears as nodules on the head and neck.
- The case presented involves a 3-week postpartum woman with a rapidly growing form of ALHE that resembled angiosarcoma, a more serious cancer.
- The article also compares ALHE with conditions like Kitamura disease and cutaneous angiosarcoma, while exploring how ALHE may be linked to pregnancy.
Article Abstract
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a rare benign vascular proliferation that clinically manifests as nodules and papules of the head and neck region. We report a profound, rapidly proliferating case of ALHE in a 3-week postpartum woman that clinically mimicked angiosarcoma. The clinical and histologic features of ALHE, Kitamura disease, and cutaneous angiosarcoma are reviewed, and the relationship between ALHE and pregnancy is discussed.
