Abstract :
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE), characterized by dermal and subcutaneous nodules in head and neck areas, is often very disfiguring. There are different modalities of treatment but surgery seems to be the best. We report a 31-year-old man with recurrent ALHE showing considerable improvement with isotretinoin.
