B cell dyscrasias are often refractory to medical treatments, and hematological stem cell therapy (SCT) may be warranted. It is not clear whether an associated polyneuropathy may also profit from SCT. In exceptional cases SCT has been tried in patients with monoclonal gammopathy and progressive polyneuropathy refractory to medical treatments. In a cohort of 225 patients with monoclonal gammopathy and polyneuropathy, we selected the six patients who underwent SCT and retrospectively examined the effects of SCT on the disease course of the associated polyneuropathy. In all patients except one, the indication for SCT was hemato-oncological (multiple myeloma in 4 patients and primary AL amyloidosis in 1). The remaining patient had an IgG monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and a progressive and painful polyneuropathy for which she was treated with SCT. SCT led to improvement of motor scores and autonomic symptoms in one patient; three patients experienced improvement of neuropathic pain or sensory deficits but showed further progression of weakness. One patient showed no improvement at all. One patient died within 100 days after SCT. In conclusion, SCT as a treatment of refractory hematological malignancy may occasionally have a positive effect on the associated progressive polyneuropathy, although the benefits are very limited and the treatment-related mortality is high.
