Abstract

A 40 year old male with a 4-year history of multiple myeloma (MM) had recurrent episodes of extensive bone involvement. A 99mTc-MDP bone scan revealed unusual radiotracer accumulations within bilateral pulmonary fields. There was no radiographic evidence of calcification in the lungs. It may represent metastatic pulmonary calcification and can be clinically correlated with hypercalcemia in MM.
