The incidence of hematological malignancy in patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) has been assessed as 17% to 25%. To ascertain whether this is true of neuropathy associated with MGUS, a long-term (5-42 years) retrospective clinical and neurophysiological follow-up
Forty cases of polyneuropathy associated with IgM monoclonal gammopathy were retrospectively studied to investigate the relevance of clinical and electrophysiological features to M-protein antibody activity. There were 26 men and 14 women; mean age was 65 ยฑ 11.7 years at the time of the study. Thirt
## Abstract We studied the frequency and clinical correlates of different IgM specificities in 75 patients with neuropathy associated with IgM monoclonal gammopathy. Patients were tested for IgM reactivity with the myelinโassociated glycoprotein, PO, neurofilaments, and tubulin by immunoblot; with
