Two cases of Angiolymphoid Hyperplasia with Eosinophilia emphasize the exuberance of clinical, evolutive and histopathological aspects. Reviews the large terminology adopted by the authors, trying to characterize the condition by its most suggestive histopathologic aspects. Take special care with this condidtion's behavior during pregnancy and oral contraceptive use beyond it's association with Bronchial Asthma. It emphasizes the results of the histopathological observations in the two cases, comparing them with those reported in the literature reviewed. It also shows the therapeutic results obtrained with adrenocorticosteroids and irradiation and summarizes the main pathologies that, by their similarities, may cause doubts about the differential diagnoses and reviews in all possible detail, the relevant literature since the original description (Kimura - 1948), up to the present day, suggesting that it represents yet another kind of Pseudolymphoma.
