Abstract

The article describes the case of an 82-year-old male presenting at the hospital with left exophthalmos. Laboratory examination showed normal prostate-specific antigen (PSA) uptake while head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a left, low- intensity orbital mass and the positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan showed abnormal [F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) intake. The article discusses the IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) with orbital inflammation and prostatitis.
