We present the case of a 58-year-old man, who has suffered from type 1 diabetes mellitus since he was young. He had monoclonal IgM kappa gammopathy of undetermined significance and high anti-MAG antibody titer. He developed a polyneuropathic picture with the clinical and laboratory features of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy within the span of approximately 2 years. He benefited from IV administration of high doses of immunoglobulins. Investigation of all parameters, but particularly of the clinical phenotype, can lead to a better definition of the polyneuropathic picture, especially for therapeutic and prognostic purposes.
