- Abstract
One of the complications of multiple myeloma (MM) is central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Intracranial plasmacytomas are rare and almost always originate from myelomatous lesions of the skull or plasmacytomas involving the clivus or base of the skull. In this study, a 55-year-old male MM patient with headache and diplopia due to skull base mass lesion near the clivus is presented as a rare presentation of MM.
