    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Tumor-associated fever is a rare sign of multiple myeloma (MM). This fever may indicate a poor prognosis, even without other known risk factors, suggesting it should be considered in MM patient assessment.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Hematology
    • Internal Medicine

    Background:

    • Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy.
    • Tumor-associated fever is an uncommon manifestation of MM.

    Observation:

    • Two cases of MM presented with tumor-associated fever.
    • These patients experienced aggressive disease progression and treatment resistance.

    Findings:

    • The patients lacked established poor prognostic factors for MM.
    • Tumor-associated fever was identified as a potential indicator of poor prognosis.

    Implications:

    • Tumor-associated fever may signify a more aggressive MM subtype.
    • Consideration of fever as a prognostic marker could refine MM patient management.
    • Further research is warranted to validate fever as a prognostic indicator in MM.
