Abstract
The term monoclonal gammopathies of renal significance (MGRS) encompasses a group of renal histopathological lesions fulfilling two criteria: (a) they are caused by nephrotoxic monoclonal immunoglobulins and (b) the monoclonal immunoglobulins are produced by small B-cell or plasma cell clones which do not meet the criteria for multiple myeloma or malignant lymphoma. Here, we provide a review of the MGRS definition and related terminology and elaborate on the diagnostic approach and treatment principles from the general physician perspective.
