The authors describe a case of multiple myeloma that developed several extraskeletal localizations. They evaluated the relation between the onset of the testicular tumor and the following myeloma characteristics: tumor burden, clinical phase, response to therapy and prognostic significance. The patient presented a rapid and dramatic clinical evolution of the disease with extensive spread also to the soft tissues of the abdominal wall. Chemotherapy did not achieve any effect and the patient died due to progression of the myeloma. |
