Multiple myeloma of the liver presenting as nonobstructive jaundice

Multiple Myeloma Presenting as Respiratory Stridor

Extramedullary plasmacytoma occurs in 18% of patients with multiple myeloma. Laryngeal involvement in multiple myeloma is rare, and only a few cases have been reported. We present a case of a 44-year-old women with multiple myeloma who presented with stridor due to a mass involving the larynx which was initially proven to be plasmacytoma on biopsy. She had evidence of multiple myeloma of IgA la...

IgA multiple myeloma presenting as non-obstructive jaundice.

Multiple myeloma can occasionally present with jaundice. The underlying process may be pancreatic head myeloma infiltration causing obstructive jaundice or hepatic amyloid deposition resulting in cholestatic jaundice. A rare case of myeloma presenting as jaundice due to hepatic myeloma infiltration is reported.

Multiple myeloma presenting clinically as obstructive jaundice: a case report.

Multiple Myeloma Presenting as Acute Liver Failure

Liver failure is rarely caused by multiple myeloma (MM). We present an unusual case of MM initially presenting as acute liver injury. A 79-year-old man with new-onset fatigue, decreased appetite, and no history of liver disease was found to have evidence of hepatic decompensation. Liver biopsy demonstrated diffuse plasma cell infiltration, and MM was confirmed with bone marrow biopsy. Chemother...

Multiple myeloma presenting as dysphagia.

Plasmacytoma is a discrete solitary mass of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells in either bone marrow or soft tissue sites. Extramedullary plasmacytoma or multiple myeloma of the larynx is extremely a rare condition. We report a 77-year-old male patient diagnosed with multiple myeloma and presented with dysphagia. The rarity of the disease incidence and difficulty of the diagnosis of this diseas...
