IgG4-related chronic sclerosing sialadenitis in a child with recurrent parotitis: a case report.

IgG4-related sialadenitis is very unusual in children. Histology plays a key role in diagnosis, considering that up to 30% of patients have normal serum IgG4 levels, as shown in our case. The lack of previous histological data makes it impossible to attribute our patient's previous episodes of parotitis to IgG4-RD, though it is a very consistent possibility.
