Herein we report a 57-year-old man with lower extremity edema and swelling in the scrotum who was found to have a periaortic soft tissue mass and hydronephrosis by computed tomography. With the most plausible diagnosis of retroperitoneal fibrosis, corticosteroid therapy was initiated; however, it
Primary or idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis, first described by Ormond in 1948, is a rare and elusive diagnosis, requiring a high level of suspicion. Patients usually present with entrapment of retroperitoneal organs, the most common being the ureters, causing hydronephrosis and acute kidney
This report describes a case of reversible topiramate-induced maculopathy in a 32-year-old female patient with IgG4-related disease. The patient presented with decreased vision associated with anterior uveitis and cystoid macula edema, which was unresponsive to oral and topical steroids. Following
OBJECTIVE
To describe a case of bilateral macular edema appearing after treatment with rituximab.
METHODS
This is a case report describing macular edema after rituximab infusions. The information was collected retrospectively through chart review.
RESULTS
A 53-year-old patient known for IgG4-related
We treated a patient with nongranulomatous panuveitis associated with idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis who had symptoms of abdominal pain, severe fever, leg edema, and blurred vision. A high C-reactive protein level, a high erythrocyte sedimentation rate, anemia, and abnormalities of the immune
The authors report a case of a 58 year old male presenting with bilateral ureteral compression by peri-aneurysmal retroperitoneal fibrosis. A ureterolysis and prosthetic replacement of the abdominal aorta gave good results. Eighteen months postoperatively, proteinuria and an edema of the lower limbs
A 79-year-old man had a 3.5-year history of edema of the lower extremities of unknown etiology. Abdominal computed tomography showed a soft tissue mass around the abdominal aorta, and the biopsy revealed dense fibrosis with abundant infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells. His serum IgG4 level
The purpose of the study was to investigate the clinical features and outcomes of retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF). Fifty-eight RPF treatment cases in the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University were retrospectively analyzed, including clinical characteristics and laboratory data. RPF
A 59-year-old man visited our hospital due to right leg edema and right leg pain. Computed tomography revealed that the circumferential enhancement of bilateral external iliac arteries by soft tissue that had similar density as the adjacent psoas muscle and that the right external iliac vein that
Filler injection or implantation is a progressing revolutionary subject. Although the widely available kinds in many implications are considered safe, post filler adverse events are not uncommon. These reactions range from mild reactions such as edema or erythema to detrimental reactions such as
BACKGROUND
Retroperitoneal fibrosis can compress ureters, nerves, and blood vessels in the abdomen. However, clinically significant large-vein obstruction secondary to this process is rare.
METHODS
Three hundred forty patients with retroperitoneal fibrosis were treated at our institution between
A 63-year-old woman presented to our hospital with elevated levels of serum IgG4, marked wall thickening of the gallbladder, hepatomegaly, and abdominal lymphadenopathy. She experienced a recurrent fever and leg edema. Her laboratory data demonstrated anemia, hypoalbuminemia, and elevated serum
