	Sato S, Yoshida K, Matsuda M, Shimada K, Koh CS, Yanagisawa N. No To Shinkei. 1995;47(8):789-93.
	Since it has been reported that several different immunosuppressive mechanisms precede the development of bone lesions in multiple myeloma, these mechanisms may have played an important role in the rapid progression of the abscess in this patient.
