IgG4-Related Retroperitoneal Fibrosis: A Rare Association With Riedel's Thyroiditis.

Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis is a rare fibro-inflammatory disease that can be associated with other IgG4-related diseases (IgG4-RDs). It is exceedingly uncommon to encounter this condition in a patient with Riedel's thyroiditis (RT), another disease in the IgG4-RD family. We present the case of a 53-year-old man with a history of RT who presented for severe localized lower abdominal and suprapubic pain due to obstructive uropathy from extensive retroperitoneal fibrosis.
