Description | Osteolytic lesions are a common manifestation of multiple myeloma, though their healing is rare in these patients. Generally, during a complete remission, lesions only stop progressing; radiologically evident recalcification is exceptional. Herein we report a case of a male patient born in 1941 and diagnosed in 2005 with IgA multiple myeloma presenting with multiple osteolytic bone lesion. A complete remission of the disease after an administration of bortezomib (Velcade) based regimen in long-term clodronate (Bonefos) treated patient with relapsed multiple myeloma is radiographically apparent by clear healing signs of the osteolytic bone lesion. |
