Overview
Risk Factors
Type I cryoglobulinemia is most often related to cancer of the blood or immune systems.
Types II and III are most often found in people who have a chronic (long-lasting) inflammatory condition, such as an autoimmune disease or hepatitis C. Most patients with mixed cryoglobulinemia have a chronic hepatitis C infection.
Other conditions that may be related to cryoglobulinemia include:
Malignancy:
- Leukemia
- Multiple myeloma
- Mycoplasma pneumonia
- Primary macroglobulinemia
Autoimmune disorders:
Infections:
- Hepatitis B
- Cytomegalovirus
- Epstein-Barr virus
- Human parvovirus B19
