Osteosclerotic Myeloma with Peripheral Neuropathy
Abstract
A case of solitary osteosclerotic myeloma with peripheral neuropathy and unusual radiological features is presented. The association of myeloma and clinical peripheral neuropathy is unusual, but occurs more commonly with osteosclerotic lesions. The radiological appearance of a lytic focus involving contiguous vertebrae with a surrounding rim of sclerosis is extremely uncommon, but the diagnosis of myeloma should, in future, be suspected in these circumstances. The literature is briefly reviewed.
