Secondary amyloidosis with concomitant gastric GIST and gastric adenocarcinoma - A case report
Indian J Pathol Microbiol. 2023 Jul-Sep;66(3):594-596. doi: 10.4103/ijpm.ijpm_461_21.ABSTRACTSecondary amyloidosis is a well-established entity and has been described in association with chronic inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, bronchiectasis, tuberculosis, etc., It has also been reported in association with neoplasms such as Hodgkin's lymphoma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, renal cell carcinoma, lung carcinoma, etc. However, only a few case reports documenting the association of amyloidosis with gastrointestinal tumor (GIST) and gastric adenocarcinoma are available in the li...

Artefactually low creatinine by Beckman Coulter enzymatic method due to immunoglobulin M paraprotein interference
Ann Clin Biochem. 2023 Jul 23:45632231190507. doi: 10.1177/00045632231190507. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAn 81-year-old man was admitted to hospital with symptomatic coronavirus disease (COVID-19) infection. He had a background of progressive chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy associated with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinaemia. His plasma creatinine on four separate samples was inconceivably low (all ≤13 μmol/L), as measured by a Beckman Coulter enzymatic assay) after being 72 μmol/L 3 months earlier. On further investigation, his serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) was 15.4 g/L and his plasma creatinine measu...

Bing-Neel syndrome with a paravertebral mass
We report a patient who presented with back pain, weakness, lower extremity numbness, and gait disturbance accompanied by immunoglobulin M paraproteinemia and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma in the bone marrow. Thoracic and lumbar magnetic resonance imaging revealed a long paravertebral mass around the spinal column, but the direct infiltration could not be proven. The patient was diagnosed with possible Bing-Neel syndrome and managed with bendamustine and rituximab. After chemotherapy, the patient's neurological and radiological findings improved. Magnetic resonance imaging should be considered when the Bing-Neel syndrome diag...
