1 61-year-old man had osteosclerotic myeloma that was localized in the eleventh thoracic vertebral body and associated with sensorimotor polyneuropathy, skin hyperipigmentation, edema, hypertrichosis, gynecomastia, and white nails. Cases of osteosclerotic myeloma with and without polyneuropathy in
A syndrome which is known as plasma cell dyscrasia with polyneuropathy and various endocrine manifestations or plasma cell dyscrasia with polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, abnormal M protein and skin changes is very interesting because this syndrome has miscellaneous manifestations such
Peripheral and cental nerve conduction were studied in five patients who had polyneuropathy associated with pigmentation, hypertrichosis, edema, and plasma cell dyscrasia by using the short-latency somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) to electrical stimulation of the median nerve at the wrist. The
Transaldolase (TALDO) deficiency is a newly recognized metabolic disease, which has been reported so far in 2 patients presenting with liver failure and cirrhosis. We report a new sibship of 4 infants born to the same consanguineous parents; all presented at birth or in the antenatal period with

The new vasodilator Roche 12-4713, an oxodiazolo-pyrimidine with long-acting direct arteriolar dilating properties, was tested in 13 patients (ages 33-66 years, mean 53 +/- 7 SD) previously uncontrolled on a beta blocker-diuretic combination. The addition of Ro 12-4713 (30-180 mg per day) for 134
We experienced a 47-year-old Japanese female with polyneuropathy, edema, hypertrichosis, hyperpigmentation, and white nail, which were diagnostic as having Crow-Fukase syndrome. Laboratory and radiological evaluation showed neither plasma cell dyscrasia nor monoclonal gammopathy. Increased factor
Acromegaly is a systemic syndrome caused by overproduction of growth hormone. Cutaneous, endocrine, cardiovascular, skeletal, and respiratory systems are affected. Cutaneous changes in acromegaly relate to overexpression of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 on skin cells and adnexa.
Cutaneous changes in acromegaly result from excess GH and IGF-1 action on skin cells and adnexae. Skin puffiness due to dermal glycosaminoglycan accumulation and edema are most prominent in the face, hands and feet. Oily skin with large pores, hypertrichosis, and excessive sweating are common
