ABSTRACT

Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 45 años de edad, de sexo masculino, con antecedentes de mieloma múltiple IgA y trasplante autólogo de células progenitoras, que consultó un cuadro de seis semanas de fiebre asociada a sintomatología constitucional. Las pruebas hepáticas mostraron compromiso por infiltración celular. En la ecografía hepática se evidenciaron múltiples lesiones nodulares, identificadas como focos circunscritos de mieloma en la biopsia por laparoscopia. Éste podría ser el primer caso informado de fiebre de origen desconocido secundaria a lesiones hepáticas nodulares por mieloma.


A 45 year old male presented with IgA multiple myeloma s/p (status post) autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; and with a history of six weeks of fever and constitutional symptoms. Liver tests showed an infiltrative pattern, with ultrasound evidence of multiple nodular lesions. A laparoscopic biopsy identified circumscribed myeloma foci. This is the first reported case of myeloma nodular liver lesions causing a fever of unknown origin.
