A Rare Case of Oral Tumor Presenting as First Sign of IgG4-related Disease

We present such a case in a 39-year-old female, whose lesion was located in the right buccal space involving the minor salivary gland. After the tumor-like growth was removed, diagnosis was confirmed with histopathologic slides showing lymphoid cell infiltration, dense fibrotic stroma, and IgG4-positive plasma cells. Thus, the patient underwent steroid therapy, and there has been no recurrence since.
