In our patient, lymph nodes and multiple skeletal sites were involved.
Almost 80% of patients with multiple myeloma have radiological evidence of skeletal involvement at diagnosis manifest in 4 different appearances: solitary deposit (plasmacytoma), diffuse skeletal involvement (myelomatosis), generalised osteopaenia and sclerosing myeloma.
Almost 80% of patients with multiple myeloma will have radiological evidence of skeletal involvement and the skeletal survey remains the best method of identifying lytic deposits within bone.
Metastatic bone involvement usually results in multiple skeletal complications leading to a significant deterioration in the quality of life for cancer patients.
Almost 80% of patients with multiple myeloma will have radiological evidence of skeletal involvement and the skeletal survey remains the best method of identifying lytic deposits within bone (see Table 3) [ 6, 11].
Skeletal involvement is observed in almost 80% of patients presenting with symptomatic multiple myeloma (MM).
Three patients suffered from multiple skeletal injuries.
Dysmorphology and skeletal involvement such as those seen in ruminants are unusual.
High-resolution MRI, low-dose CT and CBCT are the standard of care for the assessment of facial masses with skeletal involvement or of primary craniofacial skeletal lesions.
The skeletal involvement of each hot spot was calculated as the percentage of the total skeleton, and the BSI was calculated as the sum of the skeletal involvement of all hot spots classified as metastases by the ANNs.
