Significance of bone marrow immunohistochemical analysis in patients with plasma cell neoplasms by Zh. M. Kozich, V. N. Martinkov, M. Yu. Zhandarov, Zh. N. Pugacheva, N. N. Klimkovich

“…&gt;50 %), in our study interstitial and diffuse type of lesion with large accumulations was more common compared to the nodular type (p = 0.001).The CD138+ expression (IHC) more than 10 % was associated with a decrease of progression-free survival in patients with MGUS.In MM patients with an interstitial type of bone marrow infiltration and CD138+ over 10 % osteodestructive syndrome was detected by X-ray methods in 82.9 % of cases.Determination of CD56+ and immunoglobulin light chains expression in patients with MM and MGUS indicated an unfavorable prognosis.Resistance to chemotherapy or disease progression in MM patients most often occurred with a combination of IgG and immunoglobulin light chains secretion, with CD138+ plasma cells more than 50 % according to IHC, with a diffuse type of bone marrow lesion with accumulations of plasma cells. …”
