ABSTRACT: IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a multisystem autoimmune disease that can affect different organs of the body. Commonly, it affects the pancreas, salivary glands and the orbit. It is known that it can be diagnosed when there is an established correlation between clinical findings, IgG4 level and histopathology. In our case report, we present a case of a 38-year-old male patient who was suffering from uncontrolled asthma for 7 years before diagnosing him with IgG4 related disease confirmed by lacrimal gland biopsy.
