Abstract

The occurrence of polyneuropathy in association with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is quite common. However, reports of MGUS associated cranial neuropathies are rare. A 63 year-old women was presented with diplopia and swallowing difficulty. Neurological examination showed limitation of abduction of right eye, right peripheral facial palsy, decreased hearing and gag reflex, left side deviation of uvula, and decreased DTR. Sensorimotor polyneuropathy were observed with elctrophysiological studies. Protein and immunoelectrophoresis revealed IgG κmonoclonal gammopathy. She was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin and steroid, and her symptoms and signs were improved. This case suggested that she had sensorimotor polyneuropathy and multiple cranial neuropathies associated with IgG κMGUS.
