Abstract
Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related systemic disease is a rare entity known for its pancreatic involvement that might be associated with other systemic lesions. It usually presents as an autoimmune pancreatitis, sometimes mistaken for adenocarcinoma or cholangitis, salivary or lacrimal gland inflammation. Kidney lesions, vasculitislike disease, and less frequently lung and gastric lesions can also occur. Response to corticosteroids is highly suggestive. We hereby present some computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of this disease.
