Overview
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia [1] is defined as red-brown, dome-shaped, dermal papule or nodule, present in the head or neck, specifically around the ears and on the scalp.[2]
Historical Perspective
- [Disease name] was first discovered by [scientist name], a [nationality + occupation], in [year] during/following [event].
- In [year], [gene] mutations were first identified in the pathogenesis of [disease name].
- In [year], the first [discovery] was developed by [scientist] to treat/diagnose [disease name].
Classification
- [Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method]
into [number] subtypes/groups:
- [group1]
- [group2]
- [group3]
- Other variants of [disease name] include [disease subtype 1],
[disease subtype 2], and [disease subtype 3].
Pathophysiology
- The pathogenesis of [disease name] is characterized by [feature1],
[feature2], and [feature3].
- The [gene name] gene/Mutation in [gene name] has been associated with
the development of [disease name], involving the [molecular pathway] pathway.
- On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are
characteristic findings of [disease name].
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2],
and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Causes
- [Disease name] may be caused by either [cause1], [cause2], or
[cause3].
- [Disease name] is caused by a mutation in the [gene1], [gene2], or
[gene3] gene[s].
- There are no established causes for [disease name].
Differentiating [disease name] from other Diseases
- [Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause
[clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as:
- [Differential dx1]
- [Differential dx2]
- [Differential dx3]
Epidemiology and Demographics
- The prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number or range]
per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- In [year], the incidence of [disease name] was estimated to be
[number or range] cases per 100,000 individuals in [location].
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
- [Disease name] is more commonly observed among patients aged [age
range] years old.
- [Disease name] is more commonly observed among [elderly
patients/young patients/children].
Gender
- [Disease name] affects men and women equally.
- [Gender 1] are more commonly affected with [disease name] than
[gender 2].
- The [gender 1] to [Gender 2] ratio is approximately [number > 1] to
1.
Race
- There is no racial predilection for [disease name].
- [Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race.
- [Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].
Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] are [risk
factor 1], [risk factor 2], [risk factor 3], and [risk factor 4].
Natural History, Complications and Prognosis
- The majority of patients with [disease name] remain asymptomatic for
[duration/years].
- Early clinical features include [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2],
and [manifestation 3].
- If left untreated, [#%] of patients with [disease name] may progress
to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
- Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1],
[complication 2], and [complication 3].
- Prognosis is generally [excellent/good/poor], and the [1/5/10year
mortality/survival rate] of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#%].
Diagnosis
Diagnostic Criteria
- The diagnosis of [disease name] is made when at least [number] of the
following [number] diagnostic criteria are met:
- [criterion 1]
- [criterion 2]
- [criterion 3]
- [criterion 4]
Symptoms
- [Disease name] is usually asymptomatic.
- Symptoms of [disease name] may include the following:
- [symptom 1]
- [symptom 2]
- [symptom 3]
- [symptom 4]
- [symptom 5]
- [symptom 6]
Physical Examination
- Patients with [disease name] usually appear [general appearance].
- Physical examination may be remarkable for:
- [finding 1]
- [finding 2]
- [finding 3]
- [finding 4]
- [finding 5]
- [finding 6]
Laboratory Findings
- There are no specific laboratory findings associated with [disease
name].
- A [positive/negative] [test name] is diagnostic of [disease name].
- An [elevated/reduced] concentration of
[serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other] [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].
- Other laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease
name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].

- There are no [imaging study] findings associated with [disease name].
- [Imaging study 1] is the imaging modality of choice for [disease
name].
- On [imaging study 1], [disease name] is characterized by [finding 1],
[finding 2], and [finding 3].
- [Imaging study 2] may demonstrate [finding 1], [finding 2], and
