<p>Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant proliferation of abnormal plasma cell tumour that often violates multiple body systems. Its clinical manifestations vary greatly, thus leading to a high rate of misdiagnosis. Herein, we report a clinical case of non-compressive spinal cord lesion, which manifested early signs of multiple myeloma. Retrospective analyses of MM pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, and diagnosis were based on the clinical features and diagnostic criteria of MM that have been published in the literature. This study was initiated to improve current awareness of MM and to reduce the rate of misdiagnosis. </p>

Diaphragm dysfunction can originate from various etiologies, and bilaterality of the dysfunction depends on the cause. Symptoms of diaphragm dysfunction vary depending on the degree of phrenic nerve denervation, spinal cord lesion, and involvement of the diaphragm. Several infectious diaphragmatic dysfunctions have been reported, including the human immunodeficiency virus, poliovirus, West Nile virus, and dengue virus. Here, we report a case of unilateral diaphragm paralysis in a 34-year-old man with neurosyphilis.

The authors report a case of paraplegia caused by a lumbar intraspinal paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) granuloma. Clinical neurological diagnosis of a compressive spinal cord lesion was confirmed by spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Patient was submitted to surgery with total excision of the lesion. Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of PCM. Patient is on sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim combined with fluconazole and is experiencing positive neurological recovery.
