Multiple myeloma in 33 years old male patient - A case report
Journal Title: International Archives of Integrated Medicine - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a condition of malignant plasma cell proliferation derived from a single B-cell lineage. These cells produce monoclonal immunoglobulins, most commonly either immunoglobulin G (IgG) or immunoglobulin A (IgA). The peak incidence of MM is in the seventh decade, whereas, it is a rare entity in young patients. Here we are presenting a case report of 33 years old male patient with diagnosis of Multiple myeloma WHERE are able to find and document the classical features of Multiple myeloma. Increased level of β2 microglobulin, serum creatinine, IL-6, IL-2 and plasmablastic type myeloma cells suggest poor prognosis of mm patients.
