Those specimens reported as neoplasms of any type or infections were excluded, as were all those for which the histological description was not available.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the second phase, the biopsy findings were classified as probable or definite IgG4-RD according to the criteria proposed by Umehara et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0160"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> Probable disease was defined as the presence of 2 inclusion criteria, in which case, immunohistochemistry for IgG and IgG4 was performed, and definite disease as the presence of 3 or more inclusion criteria and IgG4 positivity, with an IgG4/IgG ratio ≥35%.

The diagnoses in the specimens with a definitive diagnosis of IgG4-RD referred for pathological study were (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>): aortitis (n=1), inflammatory pseudotumor of the lung (n=1), pancreatic tumor (n=1), pericarditis (n=1), lymphadenopathy under study (n=2), dacryoadenitis (n=1) and parotitis (n=1). The 2 patients with lymph node involvement were admitted to the hospital for fever of unknown origin and the patient with pancreatic tumor developed sclerosing cholangitis and salivary gland involvement.

This circumstance highlights the importance of the present study, in which we found a prevalence of 24% in biopsies with histological changes that were indicative of probable, or were compatible with, IgG4-RD. Such a high prevalence is due to the fact that our hospital is a referral center and, as has been pointed out by different authors, the greatest prevalence of the disease is observed in university hospitals, where the incidence is 0.28–1.08 per 100 000 population, with 336–1300 new cases each year. These facts underline the importance of maintaining a high level of suspicion, not only clinical, but histological as well.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0165"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10,11</span></a></p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our study shows that, due to the lack of knowledge about the pathophysiology of IgG4-RD, these conditions are most probably underdiagnosed, and that, given the heterogeneity of the clinical signs, the final diagnosis should be based on the characteristic histopathological findings.</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The reports in the literature dealing with the clinical picture of the disease stress the multiorgan association; the most common examples include salivary gland involvement and pancreatic, bile duct, lymph node and even renal involvement.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0175"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12–15</span></a> Our findings contrast with these observations, given the higher prevalence of mammary gland involvement. This disease site has only been reported in a study carried out by Cheuk et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span></a> in which the authors, on evaluating the mammary gland biopsies with presence of pseudotumors, found a great abundance of IgG4-positive plasma cells. The scope of the present study was broader as we took into account all the histopathological diagnoses, not limiting ourselves to any one organ. Despite the fact that we do not provide serum IgG4 levels in our study, the histological findings, especially IgG4/IgG plasma cell ratio greater than 50% in the biopsy, the presence of storiform fibrosis or the presence of obliterative phlebitis, are representative, and may alone exhibit greater specificity.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0200"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17,18</span></a></p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The retrospective nature of the study makes it difficult for us to categorically establish the diagnosis of IgG4-RD because of the lack of clinical and serological data of our patients, although, given their high specificity, the most important criteria for the diagnosis of diseases caused by IgG4 are the histological findings. This is not the case of the determination of serum IgG4 since, as reported by Ebbo et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,15,19</span></a> elevated serum IgG4/IgG ratios were detected in infections and neoplasms, a fact that underscores the absence of specificity of this antibody in a number of clinical contexts. This circumstance also leads us to question the central role of IgG4, and ask whether, in some cases, the infiltrate and this immunoglobulin might be an epiphenomenon.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The diagnostic value of the histological changes in IgG4-RD is variable, taking into account the high sensitivity of the tests. Masaki et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a> reported a low specificity (30%) and high sensitivity (99%) for different variables (e.g., an IgG4/IgG ratio of less than 10%).
