Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a monoclonal B-cell malignancy, which originates theoretically in lymph node germinal centers but locates and expands in bone marrow. It represents 10% of all the hematopoietic cancers, with a great variability in clinical presentation, response to therapy and survival duration. In more than 1/3 of cases, MM can be preceded by a phase of monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance (MGUS). At the extreme it can evolve in plasma blast acute leukemia.
