J Neurol.
.
Abstract
A case with peripheral neuropathy due to monoclonal gammopathy is reported. There was striking, dissociated symmetrical sensory loss and paresis, the legs being affected predominantly. The case is compared with the few reported cases of myelomatous neuropathy, and the clinical and histological findings are discussed in view of the pathogenesis.
