Suspicious bands in serum and urine protein immunofixation electrophoresis tests in patients with and without a history of monoclonal gammopathies: a retrospective database study

Key Points

• The aim is to assess the significance of suspicious bands in serum and urine protein tests among individuals with or without monoclonal gammopathies.
• Conducted a retrospective analysis of patient data from serum and urine protein tests.
• Classified patients based on prior history of monoclonal gammopathy.
• No patients initially reported with suspicious bands developed monoclonal gammopathy during follow-up.
• Recommended separate management protocols for cases based on monoclonal gammopathy history.
