Given the overlapping clinical features of sino-nasal immunoglobulin 4-related disease (IgG4-RD) to rhinitis or rhinosinusitis, this paper aims to delineate this rare, isolated manifestation significant to physicians for their daily practice and researchers contributing to this field.

IgG4-related disease with epithelioid granulomas: a case and a review of the literature.

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic, immune-mediated, fibroinflammatory disorder that affects multiple organs. Histopathologically, the supportive findings of IgG4-RD include dense lymphocytic infiltrates, obliterative phlebitis, storiform fibrosis, and elevated numbers of IgG4-positive plasma cells. However, the presence of granulomatous inflammation is generally considered highly atypical, suggesting alternative diagnoses such as sarcoidosis and lymphoma.

Importance: Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease is an increasingly recognized fibroinflammatory condition that can involve multiple organs, including the pachymeninges. The understanding of IgG4-related pachymeningitis (IgG4-RP) remains limited because of its rarity and the predominance of knowledge derived from case reports and case series.
Objective: To systematically review and synthesize the clinical presentation, investigation findings, and prognosis of IgG4-RP to better understand its diagnosis and management.

Diagnosing IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) presents significant challenges, especially when serum IgG4 levels are normal and other organs are not involved. We report a case of a 51-year-old patient with typical symptoms of biliary obstruction, including jaundice and abdominal pain. Despite normal serum IgG4 levels, imaging suggested cholangiocarcinoma, leading to extensive surgical intervention.

IgG4-related disease is a fibroinflammatory condition characterized by dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates rich in IgG4-positive plasma cells affecting multiple organs. Though the most common renal manifestation of IgG4-related disease is tubulointerstitial nephritis, it can rarely present as secondary membranous nephropathy. We present a case of a 75-year-old male with phospholipase A2 receptor-negative membranous nephropathy as an atypical manifestation of IgG4-related disease.
