An eye‐catching atypical illustration of the evaluation and management of AL amyloidosis secondary to myeloma

Abstract

Abstract We present a case of a 58‐year‐old male patient who presented to his primary care clinic with complaints of eye swelling and fatigue. Workup ultimately led to a diagnosis of AL amyloidosis secondary to myeloma based on SLiM‐CRAB criteria. We discuss his diagnostic workup, treatment, and subsequent relapse.
