Resumen

La enfermedad relacionada con inmunoglobulina G4 (ER-IgG4) se caracteriza por un infiltrado fibroinflamatorio sistémico que a menudo afecta a la órbita además de otros tejidos. Así pues, se ha de considerar en el diagnóstico diferencial de los tumores orbitarios. Se expone el caso clínico de una mujer de 64 años que presentó midriasis derecha, proptosis progresiva y parálisis del III par craneal de un año de evolución. Mediante resonancia magnética craneal se identificó una lesión intraconal de la órbita derecha, situada entre los músculos recto externo e inferior y el nervio óptico programándose para cirugía mediante abordaje transcraneal con microorbitomía lateral. Se consiguió una escisión macroscópica satisfactoria sin complicaciones reseñables y un resultado histológico diferido definitivo de seudotumor por ER-IgG4. El seguimiento durante 24 meses no mostró recidiva tumoral y la paciente mejoró clínicamente de la oftalmoplejía. Este caso subraya la eficacia de la orbitotomía lateral en el diagnóstico etiológico y los resultados terapéuticos satisfactorios de las lesiones orbitarias complejas asociadas al seudotumor por ER-IgG4.

Abstract

Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is characterized by a systemic fibroinflammatory infiltrate that often involves the orbit in addition to other tissues. Thus it has to be considered in the differential diagnosis of orbital tumors. We report the clinical case of a 64-year-old woman who presented with right mydriasis, progressive proptosis and paralysis of the third cranial nerve of 1 year of evolution. Cranial MRI identified an intraconal lesion of the right orbit, located between the external and inferior rectus muscles and the optic nerve, and she was scheduled for surgery by transcranial approach with lateral micro-orbitomy. A satisfactory macroscopic excision was achieved with no remarkable complications and a definitive deferred histological result of pseudotumor by IgG4-RD. Follow-up for 24 months showed no tumor recurrence, and the patient clinically improved from ophthalmoplejia. This case highlights the efficacy of lateral orbitotomy in the etiologic diagnosis and successful therapeutic outcome of complex orbital lesions associated with IgG4-RD pseudotumor.
