title: Biochemical studies to confirm a missed case of multiple myeloma in a seventy year old male.
abstract: Routine investigations of a 70 year old male led to provisional diagnosis of anemia. However further investigations suggested the possibilities of carcinoma of stomach associated with pernicious anemia, multiple myeloma and megaloblastic anemia. Finally serum protein electrophoresis supported by the clinical suspicion confirmed multiple myeloma.
