Popis: | We propose a novel case of a retroperitoneal mass and periaortitis with left periureteral involvement in the setting of elevated serum Immunoglobulin G3 (IgG3) that did not fulfill the criteria for Immunoglobulin G4 Related Disease (IgG4-RD) proposed by the newly updated 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria. IgG4-RD is an autoimmune fibroinflammatory condition that can affect virtually any organ in the body. |
