Notes: |
Two cases are reported, one of multiple myeloma and the other of erythrodermia (malignant reticulosis?), the former associated with a Bence-Jones paraprotein and the latter with IgM paraproteinemia. With an in vitro culture technique and/or the immunofluorescence method it could be demonstrated that the paraprotein present in the serum was synthesized not only in the bone marrow but also in the lesional skin.
