  • Title: [Significance of monoclonal macroglobulinemia].
    Author: Leporrier M.
    Journal: Rev Prat; 1993 Feb 01; 43(3):298-301. PubMed ID: 8502959.
    Abstract:
    A monoclonal IgM protein in the plasma results from an expansion of a B lymphoid clone which encompasses a spectrum of different diseases: transient clones, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and other B lymphoid malignancies, or primary amyloidosis. The main symptoms are related to the M component concentration and specific properties, the tumor development or both. Prognosis best correlates with the underlying histologic disorder.
