Utility of renal biopsy in differentiating idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease from IgG4-related disease

Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a subtype of human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8)-related Castleman disease that causes multi-organ damage, including kidney damage due to polyclonal lymphoproliferation and interleukin (IL)-6-induced cytokine storm. However, its renal pathological findings are unclear. We report the case of a woman in her 80 s who was diagnosed with iMCD based on renal pathological findings. Five years ago, hypergammaglobulinemia was detected, and her renal function declined. Renal biopsy revealed plasma cells infiltrating the stroma. Immunostaining revealed numerous IgG4-positive plasma cells. The serum IgG4 level was high, and she was initially diagnosed with IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and treated with steroids. However, the therapeutic effect was poor. On re-examination, computed tomography revealed lymphadenopathy around the aorta and spleen. Renal histopathology showed numerous IL-6-positive plasma cells. Anemia and C-reactive protein (CRP) positivity persisted despite steroid administration. HHV-8 was negative, and polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M-protein, and skin changes syndrome was not suspected. Thus, iMCD was diagnosed. Based on previous reports, there is no significant difference in IgG4 levels between iMCD and IgG4-RD, and IgG4-positive plasma cell infiltrates were observed in iMCD-affected organs. Therefore, it may be difficult to distinguish iMCD from IgG4-RD. In this case, high-serum IL-6 and CRP were observed, which are usually not seen in IgG4-RD but are common findings in iMCD, leading to the diagnosis. Patients with deep lymphadenopathy may be diagnosed with iMCD based on renal pathological findings. Renal biopsy is recommended for patients with suspected iMCD and decreased renal function.
