- Asymptomatic pleural thickening with effusion as the only manifestation of IgG4‐related disease
Forlagets udgivne version, 1,45 MB, PDF-dokument
Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease is a systemic fibroinflammatory disorder that can affect almost any tissue. Isolated IgG4 pleural disease is a rare manifestation and, when present, is usually described in patients presenting with dyspnoea. We present a case of asymptomatic isolated IgG4 pleural effusion and highlight that IgG4-related disease should be remembered as a differential diagnosis in patients with pleural effusion and pleural thickening, even if asymptomatic and without any other organ involvement.
