Light and heavy chain deposition disease with focal amyloid deposition diagnosed with mass spectrometry: a case report

Abstract Background Light and heavy chain deposition disease (LHCDD) is a rare condition characterised by the deposition of immunoglobulin components in the kidneys. Similarly, Amyloidosis is also caused by the deposition of light chain and/or heavy chain components of immunoglobulins which are fold...
