Immunoglobulin G4-related disease is a recently described systemic clinicopathological entity characterized by immunoglobulin G4-producing plasmacytic infiltration of tissue and frequently by elevated serum immunoglobulin G4 concentration. Manifestations of this disease have been documented in nearly all organs and locations, but coronary artery involvement is not widely recognized. We report the coronary findings of a patient with multi-organ immunoglobulin G4-related disease. Non-electrocardiogram-gated computed tomography of the chest demonstrated nodular and rind-like periarterial soft tissue thickening along the proximal coronary artery segments with improvement following steroid therapy.
免疫球蛋白G4相关性疾病是一种最近描述的系统性临床病理实体,其特征是产生免疫球蛋白G4的浆细胞浸润组织,且血清免疫球蛋白G4浓度常升高。几乎在所有器官和部位都有该疾病的表现记录,但冠状动脉受累尚未得到广泛认识。我们报告了一名多器官免疫球蛋白G4相关性疾病患者的冠状动脉检查结果。胸部非心电图门控计算机断层扫描显示沿冠状动脉近端节段有结节状和条索状动脉周围软组织增厚,类固醇治疗后有所改善。
