AbstractKimura's disease is a chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology. A 62-year-old man presented with asymptomatic cervical lymphadenopathy associated with eosinophilia and increased serum immunoglobulin E. Excision biopsy showed Kimura's disease. Three years later another groin lymph node appeared and showed similar pathologic features. Polymerase chain reaction for Ig heavy chain and T-cell receptor (TCR) genes on DNA extracted from the cervical lymph node showed smear patterns. However, polymerase chain reaction for TCR8 gene showed a clonal rearrangement. Sequencing showed a complete VDJ rearrangement (Vδ1-N-Dδ2-N-Jδ), confirming the presence of a clonal T cell population. The same clonal TCRδ rearrangement was amplified by polymerase chain reaction from the groin lymph node biopsied 3 years later. These results showed that the primary and recurrent lesions were biologically related. Furthermore, the presence of identical T cell clones in different sites and at different times suggested that a clonal T cell population might have contributed to the pathogenesis in this case of Kimura's disease.
