ABSTRACT
Background: Bone marrow fibrosis is characterized by increased deposition of
reticulin fibers and, in some cases, collagen fibers. There is a series of hematological
and non-hematological disorders that are associated with an increase in bone marrow
fibrosis. Non-small cell lung cancer represents 85% of all cases of lung cancer. Bone
metastasis is one of the most common complications among lung cancer survivors.
Some patients with bone metastases may suffer pathological fracture, compression of
the spinal cord or malignant hypercalcemia.
Clinical case: A 57-year-old male patient with a history of diabetes mellitus and
smoking, who presented with a clinical picture of low back pain of 4 months of evolution;
at admission he had hypercalcemia, acute kidney injury, anemia and osteolytic
lesions. A diagnostic approach of hypercalcemia of neoplastic origin was made.
Conclusions: The approach of a patient with high suspicion of multiple myeloma
was carried out, without being able to establish that diagnosis, for which reason an
iliac crest biopsy and tomographic study were requested, documenting bone marrow
fibrosis associated with metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
