Abstract:Objective: Several intracytoplasmic morphological changes in the plasma cells of multiple myeloma have been described previously, especially the Auer rod-like inclusions, but no studies focusing on white rodlike crystal inclusions have been reported to date. In this paper, we intend to report a rare case of inclusions in multiple myeloma.Methods: Bone marrow aspiration from the right superior iliac spine was examined. Cells were stained with "Wright-Giemsa" method and also analyzed by flow cytometry, immunohis… Show more
