Abstract:
Extramedullary involvement of multiple myeloma is an uncommon and aggressive condition characterized by proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells located outside the bone marrow. This report describes the imaging findings of a patient who presented with continuous soft-tissue disease on the ribs, suspected as extrapleural space tumors on chest CT. The patient was diagnosed with multiple myeloma through surgical biopsy of the tumor and bone marrow.
