18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging of Cutaneous and Intramuscular Multiple Myeloma

Cutaneous manifestations of multiple myeloma are rare but, as with other extramedullary manifestations, carry a worse prognosis. We present the case of a 65-year-old man with immunoglobulin G κ multiple myeloma and prior autologous stem cell transplant. On subsequent therapy, he presented with multiple new cutaneous and subcutaneous left hip masses. Biopsy of these lesions revealed plasma cell neoplasm with anaplastic morphology, confirming progression of disease. He subsequently underwent radiation to these lesions with plans for chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy due to refractory disease.

Abstract

Cutaneous manifestations of multiple myeloma are rare but, as with other extramedullary manifestations, carry a worse prognosis. We present the case of a 65-year-old man with immunoglobulin G κ multiple myeloma and prior autologous stem cell transplant. On subsequent therapy, he presented with multiple new cutaneous and subcutaneous left hip masses. Biopsy of these lesions revealed plasma cell neoplasm with anaplastic morphology, confirming progression of disease. He subsequently underwent radiation to these lesions with plans for chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy due to refractory disease.
