EXTRA OSSEOUS MULTIPLE MYELOMA DEPOSITS IN ORBITS AND PARANASAL SINUSES; MASQUERADING AS FUNGAL INFECTION ON MRI; A RARE PRESENTATION

Quratulain Haroon

Abstract


Abstract:

 The extraosseous soft tissue deposits of multiple myeloma is very rare. The present report describes a case of 63 years old female , k/c of multiple myeloma, on treatment, now consulted for left eye ptosis and visual loss. In this case report, we discuss the MRI findings of multiple myeloma in orbits and paranasal sinuses. The purpose of this report is to create awareness among radiologist about extraosseous presentation of multiple myeloma. There is paucity of locally published literature on extra osseous multiple myeloma deposits in orbits and paranasal sinuses.

Keywords:

Multiple myeloma, extraosseous metastasis, orbital metastases, paranasal sinus metastases,, multiple myeloma metastases.
