TEMPI syndrome
Other namesTelangiectasia-erythrocytosis-monoclonal gammopathy-perinephric-fluid collections-intrapulmonary shunting syndrome

TEMPI syndrome is an orphan disease where the patients share five characteristics from which the acronym is derived: telangiectasias, elevated erythropoietin and erythrocytosis, monoclonal gammopathy, perinephric fluid collection, and intrapulmonary shunting.

Signs and symptoms

[edit]
TEMPI Symptom
T Telangiectasias
E Elevated Erythropoietin and Erythrocytosis
M Monoclonal gammopathy
P Perinephric fluid collections
I Intrapulmonary shunting

The patients were all diagnosed at middle age. A monoclonal gammopathy was implicated in all patients tested.[1]

Cause

[edit]

The cause of the syndrome is unknown. The abnormal plasma-cell clone and/or the monoclonal gammopathy are suggested to be triggers of the disease.[2]

Diagnosis

[edit]

The diagnosis is based on the five characteristics described above.[2]

Treatment

[edit]

Complete and partial disappearance of the symptoms of the TEMPI syndrome was reported with the drugs bortezomib,[3] daratumumab[4] and autologous stem cell transplantation.[5]

History

[edit]

In 2010, the case of a man with unexplained erythrocytosis and perinephric fluid collection as main features was described in the Case Records of the Massachusetts General Hospital.[6]
