Multiple Myeloma with Intracranial Distribution

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant immunoproliferative disease involving plasma cells, leading to their malignant proliferation and the production of monoclonal paraproteins. Intracranial tumor spread in MM is very rare. This is a unique and infrequent localization, which makes it difficult to dia...

description Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant immunoproliferative disease involving plasma cells, leading to their malignant proliferation and the production of monoclonal paraproteins. Intracranial tumor spread in MM is very rare. This is a unique and infrequent localization, which makes it difficult to diagnose the disease. We report a rare case of treatment of a patient with MM intracranial spread, whose disease was presumably in remission and recurred as an intracranial plasmacytoma with a clinical picture of acute cerebrovascular accident. Surgical intervention was performed to remove the tumor, a histopathological analysis of the removed tissue was carried out. Even with early diagnosis, the prognosis remains bleak, with median survival rates of 3 to 6 months. However, aggressive multimodal treatment can prolong life by months.
