This book provides detailed information on the nosology, pathology,
pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of
fibro-inflammatory disorders, rare diseases that often display
systemic organ involvement. Among the conditions considered are
IgG4-related disease, sclerosing cholangitis, Hashimoto�s and
Riedel�s thyroiditis, retroperitoneal fibrosis/chronic
periaortitis, mediastinal fibrosis, Erdheim-Chester disease,
gadolinium-induced fibrosis, and sclerosing mesenteritis. This
group of entities is still poorly defined and is characterized by
the common denominator of chronic inflammatory infiltrate admixed
with abundant fibrosis. IgG4-related disease is the prototypical
example.

Systemic Fibroinflammatory Disorders is the first
book to draw together information on these conditions. As these
diseases often require an interdisciplinary approach, the book is
addressed to specialists of different disciplines, especially
internists, rheumatologists, nephrologists, clinical immunologists,
and hematologists.
