Clinical relapses early after autologous stem cell transplantation portrays an inferior clinical outcome. Early relapse in this setting with extramedullary disease (EMD) of lung involvement in multiple myeloma is rare. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of lymphangitic spread of myeloma with pulmonary parenchymal and pleural involvement occurring at first relapse.
