  • Title: Chronic demyelinating neuropathy with IgM-producing lymphocytes in peripheral nerve and delayed appearance of "benign" monoclonal gammopathy.
    Author: Julien J, Vital C, Vallat JM, Lagueny A, Ferrer X, Leboutet MJ.
    Journal: Neurology; 1984 Oct; 34(10):1387-9. PubMed ID: 6090989.
    Abstract:
    A chronic demyelinating neuropathy with "benign" IgM gammopathy was followed for 6 years in a 63-year-old man. The clinical, biologic, and EMG aspects were similar to those already reported, but a lymphoplasmocytic infiltrate in the nerve connective tissue of this patient has only rarely been observed in benign IgM gammopathy. The paraprotein was not evident in the serum until 5 years after symptoms of the neuropathy started.
