Core Tip	In this paper, we presented immunoglobulin G4-related sclerosing cholangitis (IgG4-SC) which was diagnosed by ACR/EULAR published new classification criteria and was successfully treated using a glucocorticoid with an immunosuppressant and made approved as imaging follow-up. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment of IgG4-SC are important to induce rapid regression and to prevent irreversible fibrosis and biliary stricture. This case emphasizes the proactive attitude to use immunosuppressants in treatment with IgG4-SC.
