Glucocorticoid Shock Therapy: A Powerful Tool for Recurrent IgG4-Related Disease

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a complex and often challenging condition that can affect multiple organs and tissues. This study presents a case report of a patient with recurrent IgG4-RD, with diabetes insipidus as the main manifestation. The patient experienced a relapse of IgG4-RD, resulting in central diabetes insipidus, a condition that affects the ability of the body to regulate water balance. The researchers treated the patient with a high-dose intravenous glucocorticoid therapy, known as glucocorticoid shock therapy. Their findings suggest that this aggressive approach can effectively manage recurrent IgG4-RD, highlighting the potential for this therapy to be a valuable tool for treating challenging cases.
