IgG4-related disease mimicking a liver abscess.

IgG4-related disease (IGRD) is a complex medical condition affecting multiple organs, including the liver. The condition is characterized by excessive production of IgG4 antibodies, leading to chronic inflammation and tissue damage. We present a case of a 37-year-old man with a history of chronic pancreatitis was diagnosed with a liver mass. Initial treatment included piperacillin and tazobactam, but the patient's condition worsened. An ultrasound-guided biopsy revealed increased IgG4 positive cells, leading to the diagnosis of an inflammatory pseudotumor associated with IGRD. The patient was treated with prednisone taper therapy, and the liver mass resolved after six months of corticoid treatment.
