摘要
Non-secretory myeloma of the maxilla is a rare occurrence. A case involving the maxillary tuberosity is presented along with an update on current understanding of myeloma biology, recent insights which provide,; for the first time, hope of significant longer term survival. New therapies and diagnostic methods, as well as the importance of involvement of the special care dentist, in management of the impacting effects of both disease and treatments are discussed.
