Immunoglobulin G4-related disease is a systemic disease in which there is infiltration of multiple organ tissues by IgG4+ plasma cells resulting fibro-inflammatory lesion. In the region ofthehead, the disease affects the orbits, lacrimal glands, nasolacrimal duct system, extra-ocular muscles, nerves, orbital fat, meninges and pituitary. Imaging (CT, MRI, PET CT) along with serum biochemical investigations are extremely useful in disease detection, differentiation from other orbitopathies,treatment response monitoring and follow up.
