چکیده
|
We report a case of multiple myeloma that presented with anorexia, fatigue, high erythrocyte sedimentation rate, bone marrow plasmacytosis of more than 30%, polyuria,and low urine specific gravity. this unusual presentation was diagnosed as nephrogenic diabetes insipidus secondary to a proximal tubular dysfunction. the tubular functional disturbance appeared to be related to thepresence of lambda-type light chains. the patient was treated with desmopressine without response. after one month of treatment with thalidomide and dexamethasone for myeloma there was a dramatic response with decreased urine output.
