[Eye involvement in plasmocytoma (author's transl)].

A description is given of a 37-year-old man, who suffered from a IgG myelom, diagnosed by internal medicine. The initial symptoms of the disease were grey-white, crystalline deposits in the cornea and recurring inflammation of the iris in both eyes. Only when a multiple recurring exophthalmos occurred, could the diagnosis be determined through an intensive internal examination. The continuing disease was still complicated by an insufficiency of the kidneys with hypertony and beginning retinopathia angiospastica.
