Renal involvement in non-malignant IgM gammopathy.
Renal involvement is observed frequently in association with malignant gammopathies, mainly those related to light chain deposition [1]. Nevertheless, light chain deposition renal disease has also been described in non-malignant monoclonal gammopathy, namely in IgG or IgA plasma cell dyscrasia [2,3]. Renal involvement in IgM monoclonal disorders is traditionally described in patients with malig...
متن کاملSimultaneous occurrence of fibrillary glomerulonephritis and renal lesions in nonmalignant monoclonal IgM gammopathy
BACKGROUND Fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN) is a rare primary glomerular disease that seldom coexists with other diseases. Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is a pathologic finding of renal lesions associated with IgM-secreting monoclonal proliferations. We present a case study of a patient with unusual simultaneous FGN and IgM-related renal disorder in nonmalignant monoclonal IgM gam...

متن کاملIgM monoclonal gammopathy and neuropathy in two siblings.
A sister and a brother with a progressive mixed axonal and demyelinating polyneuropathy were found to have a monoclonal IgM gammopathy of kappa and lambda type, respectively. Sural nerve and cutaneous nerve specimens obtained by biopsy showed deposits of IgM on myelin sheets. Sera from both patients contained antibodies directed to bovine peripheral nerve myelin as determined by ELISA technique...
متن کاملPlasma exchange and chlorambucil in polyneuropathy associated with monoclonal IgM gammopathy. IgM-associated Polyneuropathy Study Group.
The study compared chlorambucil alone with chlorambucil in combination with plasma exchange in patients with polyneuropathy associated with monoclonal IgM. Forty four patients were prospectively randomly assigned, in a comparative open trial, to receive either 0.1 mg/kg/day chlorambucil orally, for 12 months or chlorambucil associated with 15 courses of plasma exchange, during the first four mo...
