We report two cases of hyperammonemic encephalopathy in patients with multiple myeloma. This rare complication, whose pathophysiology remains unknown, is associated with disease progression and so with a very bad prognosis. We believe that this complication should be included in the differential diagnosis of encephalopathy occurring in multiple myeloma.
我们报告了两例多发性骨髓瘤患者发生高氨血症性脑病的病例。这种罕见的并发症,其病理生理学尚不清楚,与疾病进展相关,因此预后很差。我们认为这种并发症应纳入多发性骨髓瘤患者发生脑病的鉴别诊断中。
