Multiple Myeloma and Kidney Impairment at Diagnosis: A Nephrological Perspective from an Eastern European Country.

: The clinical presentation and survival factors in patients with myeloma-related kidney impairment (MRKI) at diagnosis remain a topic of ongoing research, given the complex interplay between nephrology and hematology. To date, no studies have specifically reported outcomes for these patients in Eastern Europe. : We conducted a retrospective, unicentric study of consecutive newly diagnosed patients with MRKI in our tertiary nephrology service in Romania between 2015 and 2020; follow-up extended until 1 September 2022, covering a study period of 90 months.
