Neurological Manifestations of IgG4-Related Disease.
TL;DR: IgG4-RD typically responds well to treatment with glucocorticoids, although relapse is relatively common and treatment with a steroid-sparing agent or rituximab may be required.

Sönke Detlefsen,Günter Klöppel +1 more
TL;DR: The morphologic spectrum of IgG 4-related pancreatitis and IgG4-related SC is discussed and the biopsy relevant histologic features for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of these diseases are focused on.

Gwanghui Ryu,Hyun-Jin Cho,Kyung Eun Lee,Jung Joo Lee,Sang Duk Hong,Hyo Yeol Kim,Seung-Kyu Chung,Hun-Jong Dhong +7 more
TL;DR: Evaluating immunoglobulin G4 in IPT in terms of steroid response and differential diagnosis with other skull base infiltrative lesions revealed no differences in involvement sites, clinical course, and steroid responses, but IgG4-positive group tended to have better response to steroid therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunoglobulin G4-Related Hypertrophic Pachymeningitis of the Spine: A Case Report and Systematic Review of the Literature
TL;DR: Spinal IgG4-HP is a rare entity that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of space-occupying lesions around the spinal cord and Histopathology with immunohistochemistry results provides the most reliable evidence for diagnosis.

Radiological findings and clinical features of thoracic immunoglobulin G4-positive plasma cell granuloma: two cases
TL;DR: Two cases showing IgG4-positive cell infiltration in the lung presenting as lung nodules with or without extrapulmonary manifestations are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possible role of TGF β1 in inflammatory pseudotumor associated with multiple neuroendocrine tumors of the small intestine.
TL;DR: It is stated that IPT are an aberrant secondary immunological process possibly induced by excessive TGF β1 and not a neoplasia, and the tumorous behavior points to a continuity between inflammation and neoplastic process.
