Dutcher bodies as a diagnostic key to POEMS syndrome

Blood tests revealed high levels in leukocyte (108.2 × 102 /µl) and platelet (63.7 × 104 /µl) counts, C-reactive protein (1.27 mg/dl), potassium (7.2 mmol/L), blood urea nitrogen (82 mg/dl), and creatinine (2.22 mg/dl). The patient underwent Rd (lenalidomide and dexamethasone) therapy, followed by h...

Summary:Blood tests revealed high levels in leukocyte (108.2 × 102 /µl) and platelet (63.7 × 104 /µl) counts, C-reactive protein (1.27 mg/dl), potassium (7.2 mmol/L), blood urea nitrogen (82 mg/dl), and creatinine (2.22 mg/dl). The patient underwent Rd (lenalidomide and dexamethasone) therapy, followed by high-dose melphalan administration and autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
