This case report describes a patient with a lacrimal tumour and distant bone lesions. The diagnosis of an IgG4-related pseudo tumour of the lacrimal gland with involvement of the skeleton was made. A review of lacrimal gland lesions and IgG4-related disease is given. The oncologist should be aware of this entity and it should be included in the differential diagnosis of lacrimal gland lesions.
