Lichen myxedematosus and scleromyxedema are rare disorders with cutaneous deposition of mucin, without any disturbance of the thyroid function. They are regularly associated with the presence of abnormal proteins in the serum. These proteins have been now identified as paraproteins and are one of the main symptoms of these diseases. The association of a papular mucinosis with a classical
plasmacytoma
is exceptional. We report a patient in whom lichen myxedematosus is associated with a multiple myeloma of the type IgG/kappa. Cultured skin fibroblasts show a marked decrease of
arylsulfatase A
activity. An antineoplastic-steroid therapy has brought a remission of both
plasmacytoma
and skin lesions.
