Multiple myeloma occupies a leading position among malignant blood diseases. There is clinical evidence that multiple myeloma can be complicated by secondary amyloidosis. The article presents a clinical case for the diagnosis of multiple myeloma complicated by secondary pulmonary amyloidosis. The participation of doctors of various specialties (pulmonologist, hematologist, pathologist), the use of high-tech diagnostic methods (histological examination of a biopsy of lung tissue, trepanobiopsy, immunohistochemical examination of histological preparations of lungs and bone marrow), made it possible to establish a clinical diagnosis.
