title: Plasma cell leukaemia a rare cause of disproportionate anaemia in a patient presenting as CKD.
abstract: The anaemia in patient of chronic kidney disease is commonly related to secondary erythropoietin deficiency. When the severity of anaemia is disproportionate and associated with other haematological abnormalities like thrombocytopenia, then primary haematological disorder and secondary renal involvement must be considered. Renal involvement is common in haematologic disorder like Multiple Myeloma. The diagnosis of haematological disorder may be missed. This is a case of chronic kidney disease with disproportionate severe anaemia with bleeding diasthesis which ultimately turned out to be plasma cell leukaemia.
