Özet

Multiple myeloma is a malignant tumor, usually presenting with multiple or diffuse bone involvement, characterized by plasma cells showing varying degrees of immaturity, including atypical forms. The most frequent clinical symptom is bone pain, generally referred to the spine, often remaining unlocalized. Three cases with delayed multiple myeloma diagnosis, admitted with back pain and initially diagnosed as benign spine disease, are presented in this study and literature is rewieved.
