Abstract
Maintenance hemodialysis and chemotherapeutic agents were used in the treatment of seven patients with end-stage myeloma kidney disease. Results indicate that with the use of such therapy life can be prolonged substantially. It appears that patients with myeloma-with or without serious extrarenal complications-are suitable candidates for maintenance hemodialysis and should not be denied the treatment even in the face of systemic neoplasm.Entities:
