Kimura's disease (KD) is a systemic inflammatory condition characterized by lymphadenopathy and subcutaneous nodules in the head and neck region. The lesions have a distinctive histopathological pattern formed by follicular hyperplasia, eosinophilic infiltrates, fibrosis, and vessel proliferation. The disease may occur at all ages but predominates among young males with autoimmune dysfunctions. Visceral and orbital involvement is uncommon. We report a girl with KD who developed bilateral enlargement of the lacrimal glands and a lesion in the left lateral ventricle of the brain indistinguishable from a central nervous system neoplasia. A biopsy of both the lacrimal gland and the lateral ventricle was consistent with KD.
