POEMS syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder with an underlying plasma cell dyscrasia associated with Polyneuropathy, Organomegaly, Endocrinopathy, Monoclonal gammopathy and Skin changes. Usually it is associated with sclerotic bone lesions. It usually manifests in 5th–6th decade of life with a mean survival period of eight years.
