Urethral involvement of myeloma: A rare case of visible haematuria leading to a diagnosis of relapsed multiple myeloma after curative stem cell transplantation
Keyword(s):
Extramedullary multiple myeloma involving the urinary tract is extremely rare. We report an unusual case of visible haematuria in a 45-year-old male who had a stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma 18 months previously. Cysto-urethroscopy revealed a mid-urethral lesion that was then fully excised by endoscopic resection. Histology confirmed malignant plasma cell infiltrate with subsequent staging and skeletal biopsy of a rib lesion confirming relapse of multiple myeloma. We believe this is the first case of urethral involvement to reveal a relapse of multiple myeloma after autologous stem cell transplant.
