Monoclonal Cryoglobulinemia with Extensive Gangrene of All Four Extremities

Abstract
The monoclonal immunoglobulin products of plasma cell neoplasm can give rise to a variety of manifestations including hyperviscosity, amyloidosis, cryoglobulinemia, neuropathy, and renal failure. A 50-year-old woman with monoclonal cryoglobulinemia developed extensive gangrene and ulceration of both hands and feet over several weeks requiring bilateral below-elbow and below-knee amputations. This case illustrates the importance of qualitative properties of paraprotein.
