RESUMEN

Primary secondary tumor increased recently with the use of immunomodulatory drugs in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). However, MM with prior diagnosis of primary secondary tumor is relatively rare. In this study, we reported an MM patient with prior diagnosis of rectal cancer. In brief, an 85-year-old man was first diagnosed with rectal cancer. Given the age, heart failure and small-cell hypochromic anemia (hemoglobin level: 54 g/L), rectal cancer resection was not advised and symptomatic treatments were performed (including sufficient iron supplementation). Eight months later, the patient was diagnosed with MM due to worsening anemia. Anemia and heart failure were corrected after three cycles of treatment with thalidomide, dexamethasone and capecitabine. Radical resection of rectal carcinoma (Hartmann) was finally performed due to acute abdominal distension. Meanwhile, RR interval prolongation (longest interval >5.0 s) and atrial fibrillation occurred in the fifth cycle treatment. One month after discontinuation of thalidomide, RR interval returned to normal range, while atrial fibrillation developed into persistent atrial fibrillation.
