Monoclonal Gammopathy of Uncertain Significance
- < 10% bone marrow plasma cells : 小於一成
- < 3g/dL M protein : 小於3g
- ✓ CBC, Ca, Cr, SPEP, serum free light chains, UPEP w/ immunofixation (to exclude MM)
- Close observation:
- repeat SPEP in 6 mo, then yearly thereafter if stable
- ~1%/y or ~25% lifetime risk
- → MM, WM, amyloidosis, or malign. lymphoproliferative dis.
- Abnormal serum free light chain ratio & M protein ≥1.5 g/dL:
- ↑ risk of progression to MM
