A 51-year-old male presented with paresthesia in the right S1\u2013S3 regions. A neurological examination revealed peripheral neuropathy. Blood examination results were normal, barring slightly elevated IgG levels. Initial magnetic resonance imaging of the swollen right S1 and S2 nerve roots revealed lymphoma, schwannoma, and sarcoidosis. However, following the biopsy, the pathological findings were not typical of these diseases. Abdominal computed tomography revealed perirenal lesions, and IgG4-RD was suspected. The patient had a serum IgG4 level of 724 mg\/dL. Additional pathological evaluations of the swollen S1 nerve revealed findings that corresponded to the diagnostic criteria for IgG4-RD. Oral steroid therapy was initiated, which improved paresthesia, and the swollen S1 nerve root gradually shrank.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st3\">\n<jats:title>Conclusion:
