The histological and pathogenetic spectrum of cutaneous disease in monoclonal gammopathies

Abstract: The dermatological disorders associated with monoclonal gammopathies are clinically heterogeneous and may be divided into four groups with distinctive pathogenetic mechanisms (a) specific (infiltrative) disorders including primary and secondary cutaneous plasmacytoma and cutaneous lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of Waldenström's disease (b) skin disorders because of the deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin (M protein), including amyloidoisis macroglobulinemia cutis, light chain deposition of Randall's diseas… Show more

“…Ultrastructurally the depositions consist of mostly amorphous to granular, and in some cases also microfibrillar electron-dense material. Eruption of these lesions is not related to the stage of disease, or to serum IgM levels, but alternate periods of flattening and regrowth seem to relate to the efficacy of treatment [7][8][9][10].…”
