- Brief Summary
This is an cohort study to investigate the disease course and treatment response of patients with IgG4-related disease.
- Detailed Description
Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently defined emerging clinical entity characterized by tissue infiltration by IgG4-positive plasma cells, tissue fibrosclerosis and elevated serum IgG4 concentration.
In this study, patients with IgG4-RD will be investigated, including clinical presentation, laboratory findings and imaging study. All patients will be treated by standard care and follow-uped for at least 6 months.
