Inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT) in the sinonasal cavity and skull base region is benign non-neoplastic inflammatory process. However, IPT can mimic malignant tumor or infectious disease and there are difficulties in confirmation of diagnosis. The aim of study is to evaluate the clinical significance of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) in IPT in terms of steroid response and differential diagnosis with other skull base infiltrative lesions.
