  • Title: Maintenance hemodialysis in myeloma kidney disease.
    Author: Vaziri ND, Goldman R, Schultze RG, Lee DB, Rosen SM.
    Journal: West J Med; 1977 Feb; 126(2):91-4. PubMed ID: 847982.
    Abstract:
    Maintenance hemodialysis and chemotherapeutic agents were used in the treatment of seven patients with end-stage myeloma kidney disease. Results indicate that with the use of such therapy life can be prolonged substantially. It appears that patients with myeloma-with or without serious extrarenal complications-are suitable candidates for maintenance hemodialysis and should not be denied the treatment even in the face of systemic neoplasm.
