体征/症状 与多发性骨髓瘤、POEMS(多神经病、器官巨大症、内分泌病、单克隆丙种球蛋白病和皮肤损害)综合征、骨硬化性骨髓瘤、Waldenstrom 高丙种球蛋白血症和Castleman病相关的神经病变往往以远端为主。[90]Dispenzieri A, Suarez GA, Kyke RA. POEMS syndrome (osteosclerotic myeloma).

In: Dyck PJ, Thomas PK, eds. Peripheral neuropathy. Philadelphia, PA: Elsevier Sanders; 2005:2255-76. 与冷球蛋白血症和淋巴瘤相关的神经病变均可能为多灶性。[92]Bosch EP, Habermann TM, Tefferi A.

检查 血清和尿液免疫固定电泳、定量免疫球蛋白水平、骨骼检查和骨髓活检通常会发现血液系统异常。[88]Kyle RA, Therneau TM, Rajkumar SV, et al.

Mayo Clin Proc. 2004 Jul;79(7):859-66.http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15244381?tool=bestpractice.com
对于淋巴瘤,可能需要进行神经活检。[92]Bosch EP, Habermann TM, Tefferi A. Peripheral neuropathy with lymphoma, leukemia, and myeloproliferative disorders. In: Dyck PJ, Thomas PK, eds. Peripheral neuropathy. Philadelphia, PA: Elsevier Saunders; 2005:2489-503.
尽管轴突变性可能占主导,电诊法检查可能具有轴突变性和脱髓鞘特征。[90]Dispenzieri A, Suarez GA, Kyke RA. POEMS syndrome (osteosclerotic myeloma). In: Dyck PJ, Thomas PK, eds. Peripheral neuropathy.

POEMS 与下列情况相关:下肢复合肌肉动作电位和感觉神经动作电位波幅降低更严重、时间弥散和传导阻滞更少、远端运动延迟更少、正中神经末端潜伏期指数更高、呈长度依赖模式的活动性去神经支配的更多证据。[93]Cui RT, Huang XS, Liu JX, et al.
