  • Title: The tyranny of the anecdote: Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and scleritis.
    Author: Rosenbaum JT, Becker MD.
    Journal: Ocul Immunol Inflamm; 2000 Jun; 8(2):111-3. PubMed ID: 10980683.
    Abstract:
    A 49-year-old male developed a bilateral scleritis that eventually involved the optic nerve and was associated with cotton wool spots. Investigation of a markedly elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate revealed a diagnosis of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. Although it was plausible to believe that the two rare diseases were causally related, the scleritis resolved while the gammopathy progressed.
