Orbital involvement by multiple myeloma: case report

J Comput Tomogr. 1986 Apr;10(2):145-6. doi: 10.1016/0149-936x(86)90066-4.

Abstract

A case of orbital myeloma in a patient with myelomatosis is discussed. Extraskeletal spread to the orbit has rarely been reported. In a patient with proptosis and known multiple myeloma, an orbital mass can be presumed to be orbital involvement by myeloma.
