Özet

Objective: The use of novel chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) has improved life expectancy and quality of life in these patients in the last decade. Therefore, more MM patients are treated for repeating pathological fractures. Case Report In our case spinal, interscalene and superficial cervical blocks were performed in a 61-year-old MM patient who will be operated due to tibial and humoral pathologic fractures and was at risk for general anesthesia due to cardiac and pulmonary problems. Conclusion: In this report, we demonstrated that the use of regional anesthesia is a good option in order to minimize anesthesia related risk level in the presence of MM.
