    Author: Takemori N, Kondo K, Kawamura T, Imai K, Sakurai H, Sato T.
    Journal: Am J Hematol; 2001 Jan; 66(1):62-3. PubMed ID: 11426497.
    Abstract:
    IgD myeloma is an infrequent type of multiple myeloma and is characterized by an aggressive clinical behavior and a short survival time. No satisfactory treatments have thus far been established. Recently we treated a patient with IgD(lambda)-type myeloma with glucocorticoids, and succeeded in achieving a complete remission. This case seems to indicate a usefulness of glucocorticoid monotherapy for treating IgD myeloma.
