Entry term(s) granuloma eosinofílico de partes blandas
granuloma linfofolicular eosinofílico
linfofoliculosis eosinofílica
linfogranuloma hiperplásico eosinofílico
Scope note: Enfermedad inflamatoria crónica que se caracteriza por un crecimiento benigno de los GANGLIOS LINFÁTICOS cervicales y de las GLÁNDULAS SALIVALES con niveles elevados de INMUNOGLOBULINA E. A diferencia de la HIPERPLASIA ANGIOLINFOIDE CON EOSINOFILIA, se caracteriza por infiltrados de eosinófilos en los ganglios linfáticos y en las glándulas salivales y afecta principalmente a varones asiáticos.

Scope note: A chronic inflammatory disease characterized by benign enlargement of cervical LYMPH NODE and SALIVARY GLANDS with increased levels of IMMUNOGLOBULIN E. Unlike ANGIOLYMPHOID HYPERPLASIA WITH EOSINOPHILIA it involves eosinophil infiltrates in lymph node and salivary glands and mostly found in Asian males.
