The mortality rate due to renal insufficiency in patients with myelomas was studied and the results obtained compared with figures on patients given plasmapheresis to correct the insufficiency. The results of the comparison confirm the value of the immediate use of plasmapheresis on patients with myelomas. In a large percentage of cases, the technique either completely cured or significantly improved renal dysfunction, thus normalizing the blood and urine situation and improving the patients' chances of survival.
