A 39-year-old female patient was admitted to explore chronic renal failure. Clinical history included silicone breast implants. Clinical examination was normal. Urinalysis revealed tubular proteinuria with Bence-Jones κ protein. Monoclonal immunoglobulin G κ and free monoclonal κ-light chains (LCs) were revealed by serum protein immunoelectrophoresis. Bone marrow aspiration with karyotype analysis and skeletal radiologic survey were normal. Kidney biopsy revealed a peculiar pattern of proximal tubular cells with hypertrophy and clarification initially diagnosed as an osmotic nephrosis. Immunofluorescence study, including immunoglobulin LCs conjugates was normal. Immunoelectron microscopy finally revealed a crystalline LC proximal tubulopathy κ. Our case presents some peculiarities: the absence of hematologic malignancy sign and the young patient's age. The silicone breast implants have been reported to be involved in the generation of monoclonal gammopathy.
一名39岁女性患者因慢性肾衰竭入院。临床病史包括硅胶隆胸。临床检查正常。尿液分析显示肾小管蛋白尿伴本-周κ蛋白。血清蛋白免疫电泳显示单克隆免疫球蛋白Gκ和游离单克隆κ轻链(LCs)。骨髓穿刺及核型分析和骨骼放射学检查均正常。肾活检显示近端肾小管细胞有特殊的肥大和清亮模式,最初诊断为渗透性肾病。包括免疫球蛋白轻链结合物的免疫荧光研究正常。免疫电子显微镜最终显示为结晶性轻链近端肾小管病κ。我们的病例有一些特殊之处:无血液系统恶性肿瘤迹象且患者年轻。据报道硅胶隆胸与单克隆丙种球蛋白病的发生有关。
