Abstract
Purpose of review: Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is more commonly seen in individuals with monoclonal gammopathies, especially in patients with an IgM monoclonal gammopathy or Waldenström macroglobulinemia.
Recent findings: There are multiple potential ways that the paraprotein may result in peripheral neuropathy. The diagnosis and management of monoclonal gammopathy-associated PN are challenging and necessitate a concerted effort between the hematologist/oncologist and the neurologist. This review describes the most common PN syndromes associated with monoclonal gammopathy, such as anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein neuropathy, light chain amyloidosis, cryoglobulinemia, POEMS, CANOMAD, and others. We also review the therapies used to treat these conditions.
期刊介绍:
his journal intends to provide clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts that review the most important, recently published clinical findings related to the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of hematologic malignancy.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and T-cell and other lymphoproliferative malignancies. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
