Abstract:
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated disease characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis of affected organs. With a deeper understanding of this disease among Chinese scholars and the rich experience in diagnosis and treatment in recent years, an expert group was organized by China Alliance for Rare Diseases and Chinese Rheumatology Association in 2020 and developed the first Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of IgG4-related diseases. This consensus comprehensively summarizes the principles of the diagnosis and treatment of IgG4-RD and thus provides a basis for its diagnosis and treatment by clinicians.
