abstract = {We present the clinical case of a 60 year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital referring a precordial pleuromechanic pain and was diagnosed with multiple bone fractures. A bone marrow biopsy gave the diagnosis of multiple myeloma and no monoclonal peak was detected, neither light chains in blood nor urine. The final diagnosis was non-secretory multiple myeloma and secondary spontaneous fractures. Non-secretory multiple myeloma represents only 3% of all multiple myelomas and has several characteristics that make it important to distinguish from other myelomas.},

La biopsia de médula ósea dio el diagnóstico de mieloma multiple y no se detectó pico monoclonal, ni tampoco cadenas ligeras en sangre ni orina. El diagnóstico final fue de mieloma múltiple no secretor y fracturas espontáneas secundarias. El mieloma múltiple no secretor representa solo el 3% del total de mielomas múltiples y tiene características peculiares que hacen necesaria su distinction del resto de mielomas.},
