title: [Renal damage during type I cryoglobulinemia].
abstract: CHARACTERISTICS OF THE RENAL DAMAGE: Type I cryoglobulinemia, composed of a single monoclonal immunoglobulin, may be responsible for a glomerulopathy with clinical presentation and histological characteristics close to those of mixed cryoglobulinemia.
  
  
  BACKGROUND
  Type I cryoglobulins complicate a malignant haematological disease, chronic lymphoid leukaemia or non-Hodgkin's malignant lymphoma in 60% of cases.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Treatment with corticosteroids and immunosuppressors or antimitotics often leads to the parallel stabilisation or remission of the renal manifestations and the haematological disease
