Research Advances in Treatment of Myeloma Nephropathy-Review / 中国实验血液学杂志

ABSTRACT

Myeloma nephropathy is a common complication in patients with myltiple myeloma (MM) that causes high morbidity. In the majority of cases, renal impairment is caused by the accumulation and precipitation of light chains, which form casts in the distal tubules, resulting in renal obstruction. This review discusses the recent advances on its treatment, so as to provide reference for clinical treatment of MM induced-renal failure.
