Abstract:
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare disease with approximately 400 new cases per year in Denmark. Involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) is only seen in around 1% of all MM cases (MM-CNS). Knowledge about MM-CNS is therefore extremely limited and diagnosing the condition is often challenging, due to heterogeneous presentations which can be confounded by neurological symptoms caused by the typical features of MM or common treatment side effects. This is a case report of a 68-year-old Danish male patient with MM-CNS and focus on awareness of this rare condition.
