TI  - Light chain deposition disease neuropathy resembling amyloid neuropathy in a 
      multiple myeloma patient.
PG  - 229-33
AB  - A 65-year-old man with IgG lambda multiple myeloma developed severe 
      polyneuropathy with prominent thermal-pain sensory impairment and autonomic 
      failure. Although the clinical presentation suggested amyloid neuropathy, nerve 
      biopsy showed the immunohistochemical and ultrastructural features typical of 
      light chain deposition disease (LCDD). A precise morphologic and clinical 
      description of LCDD neuropathy is given for the first time in the present report.
