IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an inflammatory process. The literature on IgG4-RD is rather limited, and cervical involvement is rare. In such cases, the presentation may mimic other pathologies, particularly cancerous. This is a clinical case of a 42-year-old patient who presented with low back pain and dysuria. Radiological imaging revealed an advanced cervical process with repercussions on the upper urinary tract. IgG4-RD involving the cervix is a difficult condition, both in diagnosis and treatment.
