Resumen en ingles
Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an
immune-mediated, fibroinflammatory condition that can
affect any organ system, with a tendency to form tumefactive lesions. It is marked by an elevated serum IgG4.
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis is a vision-threatening
condition that afflicts immunocompromised patients, especially those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. There has not
been reports regarding its association with IgG4-RD disease.
Herein, we report a case of a presumed CMV retinitis
in a non-HIV patient with IgG4-RD retroperitoneal fibrosis.
