Abstract We experienced a case of IgG4-related abdominal aortic aneurysm (IgG4-related IAAA) developing 2 years after endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) which was successfully treated by steroid administration. An 82 years old male who underwent EVAR has been regularly followed up at outpatient clinic. At 2 years follow-up post EVAR, inflammatory changes of abdominal aorta (Mantle sign) were accidentally identified by CT scan. Further investigation revealed IgG4 positive, then diagnosed as IgG4-related IAAA. He had no symptoms and there were not any complications of endoleak and/or migration of the stent graft except of 2 mm enlargement of aneurysm diameter, therefore, the surgical intervention did not seem necessary. Steroid administration therapy was commenced at starting dose 30 mg, then followed up by CT scan and laboratory evaluation. Thickened adventitia and periaortic tissue almost disappeared 2 months later. Steroid administration was reduced gradually down to 5 mg in 6 months. Serum IgG4 level was also normalized in 6 months. Neither recurrence of inflammatory abdominal aneurysm nor post EVAR complications have been detected at 1 year follow up stage.

Neither recurrence of inflammatory abdominal aneurysm nor post EVAR complications have been detected at 1 year follow up stage. 腹部大動脈瘤に対するステントグラフト内挿術施行2年後にIgG4関連炎症性腹部大動脈瘤を発症し,ステロイドによる内科治療が奏功した1例を経験した.患者は82歳,男性.他院で腹部大動脈瘤に対しEVARを施行され,以後当院外来でフォロー中,2年後のCTフォローにおいてMantle signを認め,炎症性大動脈瘤と診断,IgG4陽性であった.CT上EVAR後2 mmの瘤径拡大を除いてEndoleak, Migrationなどの異常所見は認めず,外科治療の適応なく,ステロイド投与による内科治療を選択した.ステロイドは30 mgから開始し,血液生化学検査での炎症所見とCT所見を指標に漸減した.CT上の瘤周囲肥厚所見はステロイド開始2カ月後にほぼ消退した.ステロイドは6カ月後に5 mgまで減量し,血清IgG4値も正常化した.1年経過した時点で炎症性大動脈瘤の再発はない.文献的考察を加え報告する.
