Cardiac tamponade is a rare manifestation of relapsing extramedullary multiple myeloma and portends poor prognosis. No cases of cardiac tamponade with co-occurring renal obstruction from plasmacytoma have been reported in the literature, making this case a unique presentation of relapsing multiple myeloma. The presence of known malignancy should not limit our differential diagnosis when evaluating patients with signs of cardiac tamponade.
心脏压塞是复发性髓外多发性骨髓瘤的一种罕见表现,预示预后不良。文献中未报道过合并浆细胞瘤导致肾梗阻的心脏压塞病例,因此该病例是复发性多发性骨髓瘤的独特表现。在评估有心脏压塞体征的患者时,已知恶性肿瘤的存在不应限制我们的鉴别诊断。
