A 79-year-old man had a 3.5-year history of edema of the lower extremities of unknown etiology. Abdominal computed tomography showed a soft tissue mass around the abdominal aorta, and the biopsy revealed dense fibrosis with abundant infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells. His serum IgG4 level was increased to 188 mg/dL. His lower extremity edema was induced by stenosis of the inferior vena cava (IVC) due to the mass. With a diagnosis of IgG4-related retroperitoneal fibrosis, he was treated with steroid, and the leg edema decreased with improvement of patency of the IVC and reduction of the soft tissue mass.
一名79岁男性有3.5年不明原因的下肢水肿病史。腹部计算机断层扫描显示腹主动脉周围有一个软组织肿块，活检显示致密纤维化，伴有大量IgG4阳性浆细胞浸润。他的血清IgG4水平升高至188mg/dL。他的下肢水肿是由肿块导致的下腔静脉狭窄引起的。诊断为IgG4相关腹膜后纤维化后，他接受了类固醇治疗，随着下腔静脉通畅情况的改善和软组织肿块的缩小，腿部水肿减轻。
