Abstract

Multiple myeloma and its precursor and variant types represent some of the most common hematologic malignancies in adults. These plasma cell dyscrasias are well-known in modern medicine. There are well-established clinical, laboratory, and pathologic criteria for diagnosis and staging. There is debate about the diagnosis of some of the earliest cases of myeloma described in the literature. We present a critical review of one such case.
