Abstract

Primary myelomatous pleural effusion (PMMPE) is a rare presentation. It is diagnosed based on the presence of plasma cells in pleural fluid along with elevated Monoclonal protein. PMMPE is considered to have poor prognosis with reported survival of 4 to 6 months. This study reports 6 such cases, whose survival was better than earlier reports.
