Abstract:
Central nervous system (CNS) myeloma is a rare phenomenon, especially so after high-dose therapy (HDT) and stem cell transplantation. We describe a case of isolated CNS relapse of myeloma post autologous transplantation that followed a prolonged progression-free interval. Issues regarding the pathophysiology and management of this unusual complication are discussed.
