MESQUITA, Ana Margarida; COIMBRA, Alice  e  PLACIDO, José Luís. Urticaria as a paraneoplastic syndrome: A case report. Rev Port Imunoalergologia [online]. 2019, vol.27, n.3, pp.243-245. ISSN 0871-9721.  https://doi.org/10.32932/rpia.2019.07.019.

Urticaria is a complex disease with multifactorial etiology and it may be a warning of an underlying malignant condition. Report: A 74-year-old male, with a 4-month history of intensely pruritic migratory urticarial lesions, without angioedema nor any other signs or symptoms. In his study was detected a complete IgG / lambda monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and the myelogram did not present a characteristic phenotype of multiple myeloma. Conclusion: In this patient, MGUS was diagnosed during the workup of another disease. MGUS is one of the most common pre-malignant disorders and therefore, appropriate follow-up with malignancy screening is warranted. Chronic urticaria associated with paraneoplastic syndromes is relatively rare but it is important to document these cases in order to increase their awareness

Palavras-chave : MGUS; urticaria; paraneoplastic syndrome.
