Abstract:
Immunoglobulin G4-Related Disease (IgG4-RD) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease characterized by infiltration of IgG4+ plasma cells, which can affect multiple organs such as pancreas, biliary tract, kidneys, salivary glands, lymph nodes, aorta, and retroperitoneum, et al. Cutaneous lesion involvement is a rare clinical manifestation of IgG4-RD. We report a case of IgG4-RD presenting with cutaneous lesions in combination with autoimmune pancreatitis and subacute thyroiditis. A skin biopsy pathology confirmed the diagnosis of IgG4-RD. Here we present an uncommon case of IgG4-RD with subacute thyroiditis with pancreatic and skin involvement and provide a brief literature review of skin manifestations and treatment.
