This is an autoimmune condition characterised by: P olyneuropathy - dysfunctioning peripheral motor and sensory nerves O rganomegaly - enlargement of organs such as the liver and spleen E ndocrinopathy - dysfunctioning endocrine glands producing adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism and type II diabetes mellitus due to pancreatic damage M proteins - antibody proteins produced by plasmacytomas (tumours in the bone marrow) that target the nerves producing the polyneuropathy S kin changes - changes such as hyperpigmentation and excessive hair growth can occur Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are used to eliminate the plasmacytomas that are producing the M protein causing the neurological signs. Hormone replacement therapy can be used to replace missing hormones from malfunctioning endocrine glands.

"It started with neuropathy, numbness, to my legs and feet," says Sechrist. Although not cancer, POEMS is treated with chemotherapy. Sechrist has gone through two courses as well as a bone marrow transplant of his own stem cells.

The clinical course was similar among the patients with the complete form of the POEMS syndrome and those with the incomplete form. CONCLUSIONS. Plasma-cell dyscrasia with polyneuropathy is a rare multisystem disease that often presents with osteosclerotic bone lesions. The differentiation of the POEMS syndrome from so-called osteosclerotic myeloma with peripheral neuropathy appears to have no clinical value.

POEMS syndrome: a clinico pathological study. Neurology India. 1998 Sep; 46(3): 204-11 ABSTRACT: Clinical features of five patients with POEMS syndrome and one with Castleman's disease, who presented with chronic, progressive motor sensory peripheral neuropathy are described. Papilloedema was seen in all patients with POEMS syndrome. Four of them also had bone lesions, biopsy of which established the diagnosis. Lymph node biopsy revealed angiofollicular lymphoid hyperplasia in the patient with Castleman's disease. Response to therapy was not satisfactory. The clinical features are compared with other reported series. A high index of suspicion, meticulous clinical examination and investigations are essential for establishing the diagnosis.

Peripheral Neuropathy and Monoclonal Gammopathy Norman Latov, MD, PhD Professor of Neurology and Neuroscience Weill Medical College of Cornell University New York, NY USA Introduction Classification of Monoclonal Gammopathies The monoclonal gammopathies are routinely classified according to immunoglobulin class and associated lymphoproliferative or plasma cell disorder (Table 1). Table 1. Monoclonal Gammopathy Classification IgM monoclonal gammopathies: Nonmalignant IgM monoclonal gammopathy Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia Chronic lymphocytic leukemia B-cell lymphoma IgG or IgA monoclonal gammopathies: Nonmalignant IgG or IgA monoclonal gammopathies Multiple myeloma Osteosclerotic myeloma Light or heavy chain diseases: Heavy chain myeloma ( g , µ, or a Light chain myeloma (k or l In most cases, the monoclonal gammopathies associated with neuropathy are nonmalignant, but 20 to 35% of the IgM monoclonal gammopathies are associated with Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia, and 8 to 17% of the IgA and IgG monoclonal gammopathies are associated with myeloma. The rate of transformation from the nonmalignant to the malignant state is approximately 2% per year. Estimates as to the incidence of neuropathy range from 3-32% in patients with all types of monoclonal gammopathy, 5-50% in IgM monoclonal gammopathies, and 6-25% in IgG and IgA monoclonal gammopathies. Although IgG or IgA monoclonal gammopathies are more frequent than IgM monoclonal gammopathies in the normal population, more patients with neuropathy have IgM than IgG or IgA monoclonal gammopathies. This is consistent with the greater incidence of neuropathy in the IgM monoclonal gammopathies.
