Abstract: We describe the case of a 62-year-old man who presented cholestasis and nephrotic syndrome. Peripheral blood investigations revealed leukocytosis,
thrombocytosis, Howell-Jolly bodies and others morphologic abnormalities in red blood cells. Serum protein electrophoresis evidenced a monoclonal spike and the immunofixation study identified the spike as IgM kappa. We show images of the peripheral blood film and the pathological findings. �������������������� We also�discuss the IgM monoclonal gammopathies
differential diagnosis, and treatment.
Key words: hyposplenism - IgM gammopathy - amyloidosis
