Non-secretory multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare condition that accounts for only 3% of MM cases and is defined by normal serum and urine immunofixation and a normal serum free light chain ratio. Non-secretory MM with multiple extramedullary plasmacytomas derived from endobronchial lesions is extremely rare and can be misdiagnosed as metastasis of solid cancer.
