description Hepatic involvement with space-occupying lesions seen in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare phenomenon. We present two cases of extramedullary multiple myeloma (EMM), with different presentations to highlight the diversity of clinical presentation. Clinically relevant hepatic involvement of myeloma is uncommon and can pose management problems. Hepatic involvement of EMM is indicative of a poor prognosis. Early recognition can help stage and prognosticate the disease.
