Treatment of POEMS Syndrome at Mayo Clinic
(Synonyms: Crow-Fukase syndrome, PEP syndrome, Shimpo syndrome and Takatsuki syndrome) Patients with POEMS syndrome experience an integrated approach to diagnosis and treatment at Mayo Clinic. Working together, Mayo specialists develop a treatment plan based on the patient's needs and health issues. In some cases, patients with POEMS syndrome can receive a bone marrow transplant through Mayo Clinic's Transplant Center. Mayo is active in research on this disorder.
Diagnosis
POEMS syndrome is so rare that physicians who do not have experience with the disease may miss the diagnosis. Physicians at Mayo Clinic have the skills and experience necessary to diagnose this rare condition. The overgrowth of plasma cells can often be detected by finding an abnormal protein in the blood or urine, by an abnormality on a bone X-ray and/or a bone marrow biopsy. Read more about diagnosis of POEMS Syndrome
Treatment Options
Because POEMS syndrome is a multisystem disease, hematologists at Mayo Clinic gather neurologists, endocrinologists, radiation oncologists, physical therapists and other specialists to develop a comprehensive treatment approach. Treatment options include radiation therapy, corticosteroids, chemotherapy, a bone marrow transplant, hormone replacement therapy and physical therapy. Read more about

Symptoms of POEMS Syndrome
POEMS is an acronym for the syndrome's most common symptoms: P polyneuropathy: nerve disease (numbness, tingling, and weakness of the hands and feet). O organomegaly: organ enlargement (liver, lymph nodes or spleen). E endocrinopathy: disease affecting hormone-producing glands (sexual development, metabolic functions, thyroid hormones, etc.). M monoclonal gammopathy or monoclonal plasma proliferative disorder: a collection of abnormal blood protein cells. S skin changes: increased skin pigment, increased body hair, thickening of the skin, whitening of the nails, etc. To receive a diagnosis of POEMS syndrome, patients must experience at least the "P" and the "M" as well as either sclerotic (scarring) bone lesions or Castleman disease, a coexisting condition. Patients will typically have at least one other feature (the "O", "E", or "S") as well as some abnormalities listed below. Common abnormalities included in the syndrome include:
  • Fatigue and weakness Edema (swelling of the ankles and legs) Enlarged breast tissue (occurs in both men and women) Generalized aches and pains Ascites (fluid collection in the abdomen) Pleural effusion (fluid collection in the lungs) Increased blood cell counts (increased platelet or red cell count) Changes in vision
