Abstract

This case involves a man with a medical history of multiple myeloma and osseous metastasis of prostate carcinoma. He presented with a progressively growing red tumor on his chest for the past three weeks. Histopathological examination revealed many atypical CD0138-positive plasmablastic cells, which matches a cutaneous manifestation of multiple myeloma.
