A case of xanthoma of the liver in a 61-year-old Korean woman with multiple myeloma, hyperlipidemia and xanthoma of the skin is described. Microscopically, the liver showed a multiple xanthomatous collection of foamy histiocytes as well as diffuse sinusoidal infiltration of the foam cells. This hepatic accumulation of foam cells seems to be related to hyperlipidemia of the patient. The mechanism of hyperlipidemia in multiple myeloma is discussed.
本文描述了一名61岁韩国女性，患有多发性骨髓瘤、高脂血症和皮肤黄瘤，同时伴有肝黄瘤的病例。显微镜下，肝脏显示有多个由泡沫状组织细胞构成的黄瘤样聚集，以及泡沫细胞的弥漫性窦状隙浸润。肝脏中泡沫细胞的这种积聚似乎与患者的高脂血症有关。文中讨论了多发性骨髓瘤中高脂血症的机制。
