Patients with orbitary and kidney commitment
Rare differential diagnoses
Abstract
A series of three cases that consulted the rheumatology service due to orbital and renal involvement is reported. One of them presented orbital pseudotumor with proteinuria in the nephrotic range, a biopsy was performed, finding dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate and storiform fibrosis with immunohistochemistry: 15 IgG4 positive cells per HPF and IgG/IgG4 ratio ≤40%, concluding diagnosis of IgG4 related disease. The second and third cases presented ocular involvement with raccoon eyes and yellowish lesions on the eyelids, both with proteinuria greater than 500 mg/24 h, with apple-green birefringence of amyloid on congo red staining. Different rare differential diagnoses to take into account in these patients are discussed.References
