POEMS syndrome is a constellation of findings:[1]
- Polyneuropathy.
- Organomegaly.
- Endocrinopathy.
- M-protein.
- Skin changes.
Pathology
- The pathologist may come across an undiagnosed case in the form of a glomeruloid hemangioma; however, glomeruloid hemangiomas are not always associated with the POEMS syndrome.[2]
