A 40 year old Chinese woman presented with anasarca and later developed features of POEMS syndrome. These are peripheral neuropathy (P), organomegaly (O), endocrine dysfunction (E), monoclonal gammopathy (M), and skin changes (S) which are usually associated with plasma cell dyscrasia.

POEMS (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrine disturbance, M-protein and skin hyperpigmentation) syndrome occurring in Chinese has been inadequately described. Here we report our experience of 12 Chinese patients with the syndrome. This series is similar to those reported from Japan and from the Western world by the predominance of middle-aged males ...

Abstract POEMS syndrome is defined by the presence of a peripheral neuropathy (P), a monoclonal plasma cell disorder (M), and other paraneoplastic features, the most common of which include organomegaly (O), endocrinopathy (E), skin changes (S), papilledema, edema, effusions, ascites, and thrombocytosis.

The Endocrinopathy of Poems Syndrome
Scottish Medical Journal, 1989We describe the clinical features and post mortem findings in a patient with POEMS syndrome (P — polyneuropathy, O — organomegaly, E — endocrinopathy, M — M protein, S — skin changes), with particular emphasis on the evolution of the endocrinopathy over a three year period.

POEMS (polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, M protein, and skin changes) syndrome is a rare multisystemic paraneoplastic syndrome driven by an underlying plasma cell dyscrasia. More than 95% of patients will have monoclonal lambda sclerotic plasmacytoma(s) or bone marrow infiltration.

POEMS syndrome is a paraneoplastic disorder secondary to an underlying plasma cell dyscrasia. By definition, all patients with POEMS syndrome must display polyneuropathy and monoclonal plasma cell disorder. In addition, at least one major criterion (Castleman's disease, sclerotic bone lesions, or vascular endothelial growth factor elevation) and one ...

Seminars in Dermatology, 1995
The principal features of POEMS syndrome are osteosclerotic bone lesions, peripheral sensorimotor neuropathy, and elevated levels of a monoclonal protein in the serum or urine. Skin lesions are present in the majority of patients with POEMS syndrome. Diffuse hyperpigmentation is the most common cutaneous finding.

A middle-aged man presented with progressive dyspnea and a pleural effusion. He had slowly progressive bilateral symmetric extremity weakness, mediastinal lymphadenopathy, and splenomegaly. The diagnosis of POEMS syndrome (Polyneuropathy, Organomegaly, Endocrinopathy, M-Protein and Skin changes was suspected clinically and confirmed with a bone marrow ...

Sindrom POEMS: POEMS syndrome:
2008Background We have presented the patient with POEMS syndrome (Polyneuropathy, Organo megaly, Endocrinopathy, M protein, Skin changes) in which peripheral neuropathy was associated with monoclonal gammopathy and osteosclerotic myeloma. The clinical picture, diagnostic procedures, the course of the disease and the treatment are discussed.
