WCN25-4506 CLINICAL AND PATHOLOGIC FEATURES OF MONOCLONAL GAMMOPATHY OF RENAL SIGNIFICANCE (MGRS) LESIONS
Conclusions:In patients with MG who undergo a kidney biopsy, the rate of finding an MGRS lesion was about 49%, with AL-amyloidosis and MIDD representing the majority of the cases.Higher proteinuria, namely greater than 1.5 g/day and an elevated free light chain ratio increase the likelihood of finding MGRS, and a kidney biopsy should be highly considered in these patients.I have no potential conflict of interest to disclose.I did not use generative AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process.
