A member asked:

Could eosinophilic granuloma come back to body once taken out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: Short answer - yes. Surgery might remove the mass, but the fundamental reason for the granuloma has not necessarily been addressed. So it could come back. There is not necessarily any better treatment.
