An unusual presentation of multiple myeloma: a case report.
Molloy CB, Peck RA, Bonny SJ, Jowitt SN, Denton J, Freemont AJ, Ismail AA.
J Med Case Rep. 2007;1:84.
The diagnosis of multiple myeloma (with secondary amyloidosis) was made on serum protein electrophoresis and bone marrow biopsy.The relationship between myeloma and joint disease is discussed, highlighted by the presence in this case of all three pathogenic features associated with arthritis in myeloma patients- an erosive arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and an invasive tumoural arthritis.
