The levels of beta 2-microglobulin in urine and serum were determined in 39 patients with myelomatosis. In 25 patients the serum beta 2-microglobulin was elevated, and in seven of the patients with increased serum beta-microglobulin the urinary excretion of the protein was also increased. It was concluded that the increased urine beta-microglobulin indicates a renal tubular disorder.
