Where this comes from

Abstract

Two instances of the unusual familial association of severe primary acquired hypogammaglobulinaemia and paraproteinaemia are described, and previous reports of familial immunoglobulin dyscrasias are discussed. Our observations lend further support to the possible existence of a genetic predisposition to these disorders.
