Lymphoproliferative syndromes (multiple myeloma, Waldenström's disease, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lymphomas) may be associated with peripheral neuropathies. The mechanism can be dysimmune, associated or not with monoclonal gammopathies; paraneoplastic; infiltrative; or more commonly, iatrogenic or due to vitamin deficiency. The diagnosis can be complex, especially when the neuropathy is the presenting manifestation, requiring a close cooperation between internists and neurologists. The positive diagnosis of the neuropathy is based on a systematic electro-clinical investigation, which specifies the topography and the mechanism of the nerve damage, sometimes reinforced by imaging examinations, in particular, nerve and/or plexus MRI. The imputability of the neuropathy to a lymphoproliferative syndrome is based on a set of arguments including the clinical context (B signs, tumour syndrome), first-line laboratory tests (hemogram, protein electrophoresis, viral serologies, complement), auto-antibodies discussed according to the neuropathy (anti-MAG, anti-gangliosides) and sometimes more invasive examinations (bone marrow or neuro-muscular biopsies).
