[Association of IGg multiple myeloma with pulmonary amyloidosis: about one case].
Pulmonary amyloidosis is a rather rare complication of multiple myeloma particularily the rare Ig D myeloma. It is often generalized and is seen in a late stage of the disease. We report a case of an Ig G myeloma complicated of a pulmonary amyloidosis in a 66-year-old man hospitalised for infectious pulmonary disease with a radiologic interstitial syndrome. Discovery of the multiple myeloma and of the amyloidosis was fortuitous.
