Concept ID:
C4725855
Neoplastic Process
Synonym: Non-IgM MGUS

Definition

Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance defined by the presence in the serum of an IgG, IgA, or (rarely) IgD paraprotein at a concentration of less than 30g/L; clonal bone marrow plasma cells less than 10%; and absence of end-organ damage such as hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency, anemia, bone marrow lesions, and amyloidosis attributable to the plasma cell proliferative disorder. The risk of progression to plasma cell myeloma, light-chain amyloidosis, or a related disorder is 1% per year. (WHO 2017) [from NCI]
