  • Title: Prostatic cancer presenting monoclonal gammopathy: report of two cases.
    Author: Tsutsumi M, Hara T, Fukasawa R, Koiso K.
    Journal: Hinyokika Kiyo; 1993 Jun; 39(6):569-71. PubMed ID: 8337985.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of prostatic cancer accompanied by monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) are reported. Both cases presented IgG-lambda type hyperimmunoglobulinemia and Bence Jones protein (BJP) in the urine. A characteristic of both cases was significant multiple bone metastasis, and one case also demonstrated a severe immunological disorder. During the treatment, one patient recovered from MGUS. We recommend that elderly male patients manifesting MGUS be examined for prostatic cancer.
