Multiple myeloma is a cancer of plasma cells that results in numerous symptoms. It is caused by malignant proliferation of a single clone of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Symptoms include bone pain, fractures, kidney failure, infections, anemia, high calcium levels, and occasionally blood clotting issues, neurological problems, and hyperviscosity symptoms. Treatment involves chemotherapy and stem cell transplants to control disease progression and manage complications.

2. Multiple Myeloma Multiple myeloma represents a malignant proliferation of plasma cells derived from a single clone. The terms multiple myeloma and myeloma may be used interchangeably. The tumor, its products, and the host response to it result in a number of organ dysfunctions and symptoms of bone pain or fracture, renal failure, susceptibility to infection, anemia, hypercalcemia, and occasionally clotting abnormalities, neurologic symptoms, and manifestations of hyperviscosity.
