Three cases of IgG4-RD complicated by splenic artery aneurysm: a complication of IgG4-RD? [PDF]
RMD OpenImmunoglobulin 4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is known for its potential to affect nearly every organ, particularly a preference for large and middle-sized arteries when vascular involvement occurs. However, instances of splenic artery aneurysms are exceedingly rare with only two cases reported in the literature.
