Malignant lymphoma with "myeloma kidney" acute renal failure.
The first cases of malignant lymphoma with a "myeloma kidney" type of acute renal failure are presented. With appropriate therapy, both patients regained partial renal function; the first after three months of dialysis. It is suggested that the term paraproteinemic nephropathy is preferable to "myeloma kidney."
