Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) and Kimura disease are both rare benign vascular disorders characterized by vascular proliferation and inflammatory infiltrate, but they exhibit distinct clinical and histopathological features. Herein, we present a series of 5 cases of ALHE initially misdiagnosed as multiple pyogenic granulomas and acne keloidalis nuchae highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis and differential consideration, particularly in unusual clinical presentations. We compare ALHE with Kimura disease, emphasizing their differences in clinical presentation, histopathological findings and management strategies.
