title: CNS demyelination in monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS): possible cause of a dementia syndrome.
abstract: In acquired peripheral demyelinating disease only few publications point out the possibility of simultaneous involvement of the CNS. We describe two patients with chronic polyneuropathy and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) developing a progressive dementia syndrome with extensive cerebral white matter alterations.
