Background
MGRS is a heterogeneous group of kidney disorders characterized by direct or indirect kidney injury caused by toxic monoclonal immunoglobulin that does not meet the current hematological malignancy criteria. The concept of MGRS was introduced in 2012 by IKMG. The diagnosis of MGRS is typically made by nephrologist through kidney biopsy. The followings are the Aims of the study: 1.Histopathological spectrum of MGRS patients, 2.Different clinical & pathological variable in MGRS patients, 3.Response to standard of care
Methods
All MGRS patients (IKMG guidelines) attending IPGME& R hospital are included in this study over a period of 1st January'23 - December'23. All data are captured by using preformed proforma & analysed by SPSS software.
Results
15 patients were included. Median age - 52 years, (2 patients < 40 years). Male : Female 1:1.
Diabetes was found in 5/15, one hypothyroid, 3 patients had hypertension, one patient had Urinary bladder Carcinoma.
Presentations: Nephrotic syndrome - 8, RPRF - 3, AKI - 2, CKD3b -1 , CKD4-1. Peripheral blood - Eosinophilia ( Absolute count > 500/microlitre) found in 10.
Renal biopsy: AL amyloidosis - 8, PGNMID - 3, MIDD ( LCDD) - 3 , C3 glomerulopathy - 1
Serum Protein Electrophoresis & Immunefixation:
M band was detected in 60% of study population.
AL amyloidosis (8) - M band in 5. Immunefixation showed IgG lambda in 6, 2 patients had IgG Kappa.
PGNMID (3) - 1 had no M band & Immunefixation failed to detect any monoclonal intact immunoglobulin & or freelight chain. Renal biopsy showed IgG3kappa . Other two patients had no M band, Immunefixation showed IgG Kappa & lambda.
LCDD (3) - one patient had no M band, but IgG Kappa was found in one patient, two patients showed IgG lambda.
Serum Free light chain ratio was altered in 8, lambda dominance among 5, rest were Kappa .
Conclusion
The MGRS group of kidney diseases often produces diagnostic challenges. So it requires multidisciplinary coordination. Cardiac death is common both pre and post therapy, particularly in AL amyloidosis patients. Therefore early & timely detection are required to improve overall & renal prognosis of patients & also reduces the chance of progression into overt hematological malignancy. Clone based therapy followed by HSCT may be curative.
