These highly proliferative, differentiated B-lymphocytes can secrete a range of immunoglobulins (Ig), with IgG and IgA being the most common and IgD to a lesser extent. Typically, the abnormal plasma cells primarily reside in the bone marrow, and only a small minority of patients exhibit extramedullary disease at diagnosis.
