Multiple myeloma patients are recognized to have a higher risk of venous thrombosis. The cause of this could be attributed to several risk factors, such as circulating prothrombotic microparticles, disease-specific variables, and alterations in coagulation and fibrinolysis factors. Recent research has revealed that these individuals also experience greater arterial thrombosis, including acute myocardial infarction and stroke. In this case report, we present the clinical profile and management of a 42-year-old patient who presented with signs and symptoms of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. The aim of this case report is to highlight a rare clinical presentation and diagnostic workup in a patient with multiple myeloma. Additionally, we discuss the possible factors provoking the development of DVT as a first presentation before treatment initiation and their possible mechanisms.
