Show Answer & Explanation ▾
✓ Correct Answer: C. Plasma immunoelectrophoresis.
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( ESR) is not raised in quiescent UC . Hence there must be another reason in this case. The only abnormal result given is a raised IgG . This suggests that myeloma is a possible diagnosis. Plasma immunoelectrophoresis to look for an M band is the most appropriate next investigation. A bone marrow trephine is the definitive investigation but is traumatic and painful to the patient and so is not the next investigation of choice.
