IgG4-related sickness is an uncommon systemic condition that can affect any organ in our body. In 2003, Kamisawa proposed a new common nomenclature for systemic IgG4-related autoimmune illnesses called IgG4 Related Disorder (IgG4-RD) to group these distinct organs involved in this unusual identical auto-immune phenomena. Because clinical and radiological imaging signs overlap, many illnesses are challenging to detect clinically and radiologically. These illnesses include symptoms that are similar to both inflammatory and malignant diseases, making a diagnosis, therapy, and forecasting the natural course of disease extremely challenging.
