Resumo: Non-secretory multiple myeloma is a rare form of the disease that presents a diagnostic challenge. A 69-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with a pathological fracture of the right clavicle, along with a history of asthenia and middle back pain in the preceding three months. Workup revealed multiple focal lytic bone lesions in the clavicles, ribs, skull and thoracic- lumbar-sacral spine, without evidence of anemia, hypercalcemia or renal failure, with no abnormal immunofixation in the serum or urine and with normal serum free light chain ratios. The Iliac crest bone marrow aspiration and biopsy revealed a scarcely involved marrow, However, biopsy of one of the focal bone lesions revealed a hypercellular bone marrow with phenotypically abnormal plasmocytes, along with an intriguing, albeit aberrant, cytokeratin expression. Non-secretory multiple myeloma is in itself a rare diagnosis. However, the combination of a patchy marrow involvement and aberrant cytokeratin expression makes this a noteworthy presentation.

Uma mulher de 69 anos recorreu ao serviço de urgência com uma fratura patológica da clavícula direita e uma história de astenia e dorsalgia com três meses de evolução. A investigação revelou múltiplas lesões ósseas focais osteolíticas nas clavículas, costelas, crânio e coluna dorso-lombo-sagrada, sem evidência de anemia, hipercalcemia ou insuficiência renal, sem imunofixação anormal no soro ou na urina e com rácios de cadeias leves livres normais. O aspirado e biópsia de medula óssea da crista ilíaca revelou um escasso envolvimento por plasmócitos. No entanto, a biópsia de uma das lesões focais revelou uma medula hipercelular com plasmócitos fenotipicamente anormais e com uma aberrante expressão de citoqueratinas. O mieloma múltiplo não-secretor é por si só um diagnóstico raro. Contudo, a combinação de envolvimento irregular da medula e a expressão aberrante de citoqueratinas são merecedoras de atenção.Ordem dos Médicos2021-11-02info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/13235oai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/13235Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 34 No. 11 (2021): November; 778-781Acta Médica Portuguesa; Vol. 34 N.º 11 (2021): Novembro; 778-7811646-07580870-399Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/13235https://www.actamedicaportuguesa.com/revista/index.php/amp/article/view/13235/6435Direitos de Autor (c) 2021 Acta Médica Portuguesainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, MiguelMartins, JoanaPinto, JoãoAmaro, Teresina2022-12-20T11:06:49Zoai:ojs.www.actamedicaportuguesa.com:article/13235Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:20:19.792066Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
