Abstract
We report a 70-year-old man with a salmon patch conjunctival mass diagnosed as multiple myeloma. Case report. Surgical biopsies of the salmon patch conjunctival mass and bone marrow, as well as hematologic workup for multiple myeloma were performed. Conjunctival biopsy revealed heavy myeloma cells with eccentric nuclei and basophilic cytoplasm infiltrate in the conjunctival stroma. Bone marrow biopsy and aspirate showed interstitial infiltrated by myeloma cells, which stained monoclonally for immunoglobulin G (IgG)-kappa light chains. Hematologic tests confirmed the diagnosis of multiple myeloma. Multiple myeloma is one of the causes of a salmon patch conjunctival lesion and may be included in the differential diagnosis.
