Abstract
AbstractTherapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is an extracorporeal technique where patient’s plasma containing pathogenic substances is separated and removed from the whole blood, while the cellular component is returned to the patient mixed with replacement solution via an apheresis machine. Due to its ability to remove pathogenic substances from plasma including immunoglobulins, TPE has proven efficacious in the management of various disorders across different medical disciplines, including plasma cell dyscrasias, which are characterized by the abundant secretion of non-functional immunoglobulins produced by an abnormally proliferating plasma cell clone. This review summarizes the current indications of TPE in plasma cell-related disorders and discusses its application, safety, and therapeutic effects.
