Cryoglobulinemia is a systemic syndrome characterised by vasculitis and presence of circulating serum immunological complexes which are cold-precipitable (cryoglobulins).
There are three types of cryoglobulinemias. Type I is composed of single, monoclonal immunoglobulins, types II and III are composed of immunocomplexes formed by monoclonal (in type II) or polyclonal (in type III) IgM with rheumatoid factor activity.
