We are a group of rheumatologists with a shared interest in the study of IgG4-Related Disease (IgG4-RD).

Group Objectives
 

• Promote research on IgG4-RD in Latin America.
• Disseminate knowledge about IgG4-RD among rheumatologists, physicians from other specialties, and clinicians in the region.
   

Completed Projects

• Development of an epidemiological database on the disease.
• Presentation of the group’s first study at the PANLAR 2020 Congress:
• “IgG4-Related Disease: Results from a Multicenter PANLAR Study Group Registry.”
• Recording of the PANLAR Course: Update on IgG4-Related Disease.
• Participation in PANLAR 2024 with the session:
• “Hematologic disorders mimicking IgG4-related disease.”
