Deskripsi

Plasma cell dyscrasia is a result of an abnormal clonal proliferation of plasma cells. These cells arise from B cells in the bone marrow and produce immunoglobulins. Multiple myeloma is a type of plasma cell dyscrasia that commonly presents with symptoms secondary to hypercalcemia, hyperviscosity, renal failure, and bone pain. Here, we report three patients with unusual presentations of plasma cell dyscrasias.
