Brief Summary: Anti-MAG Myelin Associated Glycoprotein neuropathy is related to clonal B lymphocyte proliferation producing an monoclonal immunoglobulin IgM with anti-MAG activity IgM may be a reflection of malignant lymphoproliferative syndrome Waldenström disease or more often monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance

The anti-MAG antibody has a direct toxicity on the myelin sheath of the peripheral nervous system responsible for a length-dependent demyelinating polyneuropathy Clinically this results in a sensitive ataxic predominant polyneuropathy in the lower limbs sometimes associated with a tremor of attitude and action tremor of the upper limbs

Clonal B cells at the origin of IgM production may have acquired mutations affecting MYD88 MYD88 L265P mutation and CXCR4 Whim-like CXCR4 mutation The prevalence of the MYD88 L265P mutation is estimated to be 50 in monoclonal gammopathies of undetermined significance and more than 80 in Waldenström disease CXCR4 Whim-like mutations are found in 40 of patients with Waldenströms disease

No studies have reported the prevalence of these mutations in patients with anti-MAG neuropathies
Detailed Description: This is a retrospective observational study in patients with anti-MAG neuropathy Mutational analysis will be performed for patients with a medullary or blood sample stored in a bio-bank during lymphocyte phenotyping This phenotyping was carried out most often in search of a malignant haemopathy associated with the monoclonal peak No new samples were taken from the patient blood or spinal cord

Immunoglobulin gene rearrangement of the clonal B cells are also assessed
