We report the case of a 71-year-old woman with typical signs of bulbar amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) associated with immunoglobulin M (IgM) monoclonal gammopathy and anti-MAG (myelin-associated glycoprotein) antibodies. This unusual association between ALS and anti-MAG antibodies has previously been reported in a single case. Our present case, at neuropathological examination, demonstrated no causative link between anti-MAG antibodies and ALS.
我们报告了一例71岁女性患者,患有典型的延髓性肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS),伴有免疫球蛋白M(IgM)单克隆丙种球蛋白病和抗髓鞘相关糖蛋白(MAG)抗体。ALS与抗MAG抗体之间这种不寻常的关联此前仅在一例病例中有过报道。在我们目前的这个病例中,神经病理学检查显示抗MAG抗体与ALS之间不存在因果联系。
