Abstract

Monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance is a recently described entity in which a small B-cell clone not meeting the criteria for the diagnosis of multiple myeloma produces renal disease usually through deposition of a secreted monoclonal immunoglobulin. Here, we describe a case of Type I cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis diagnosed on a kidney biopsy and caused by a monoclonal IgM produced by a small bone marrow clone. The patient made a complete renal recovery after chemotherapy to suppress the clone. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
