Urologic manifestations of IgG4-related disease

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a clinical entity characterized by elevated serum IgG4 and tumor-like inflammation, with tissue infiltration by IgG4 and plasma cells. IgG4-RD is rare, but clinically significant, and its urologic manifestations have been reported in the literature. The present review covers a broad spectrum, describing the pathologies related to the area of urology. 
In 2003, Terumi Kamisawa was the first to recognize IgG4-RD, characterized by multiorgan lesions in patients with autoimmune pancreatitis and classified as an inflammatory and fibrotic entity with a dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, positive for  IgG4.(1–3) It presents in middle-aged patients, between 59-68 years of age, with no clear distribution by sex, (4–6) and has different clinical presentations. The main urologic manifestations are inflammatory pseudotumors and lower urinary tract symptoms. The present article offers a clear, general overview of the disease, encompassing its pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment, from the perspective of urology.
