Overview
Common risk factors in the development of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance include: serum monoclonal protein level ≥1.5 g/dL ,Non-IgG MGUS (ie, IgA, IgM, IgD MGUS),abnormal serum free light chain ratio (ie, ratio of kappa to lambda free light chains <0.26 or >1.65.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance include: serum monoclonal protein level ≥1.5 g/dL ,Non-IgG MGUS (ie, IgA, IgM, IgD MGUS),abnormal serum free light chain ratio (ie, ratio of kappa to lambda free light chains <0.26 or >1.65.
