The diagnosis of the disease may refer to Japanese IgG4-related disease diagnostic criteria. We should identify it to exclude gastric cancer clinically. Treatment with steroids was given priority to, and surgery could be a complementary method. Conclusion: The incidence of IgG4 related-gastric disease is rare, and it is not difficult to diagnose and treat by analysis of the limited cases.
