Summary: The authors describe uncommon combinations of multiple myeloma in three men aged 83, 63 and
55 years. In patient no. 1 both diseases - pernicious anaemia and multiple myeloma IgG-kappa
were detected simultaneously. In patient no. 2 Crohn´s disease preceded multiple myeloma
IgA-lambda by more than 30 years. In patient no. 3 Gaucher´s disease preceded multiple myeloma
with paraproteinaemia IgA-lambda and IgG-kappa by more than 10 years. The diagnosis was
facilitated by examination of the bone marrow, immunochemical examination of serum and urine
and X-ray examination of the skeleton. In all patients the development of the myeloma had an
adverse effect on the general course of the disease and despite treatment it soon proved fatal. In
the discussion views on the possible causal associations between these diseases are discussed.
