摘要

An 11 years old Yucatan Pig with a Multiple Myeloma in the spinal cord, the sternum and the pelvis is described. The major clinical sign was a paresis of the hind limb. The most significant haematological change was a lymphopenia. The X-ray examination and computed tomography showed typical osteolytic changes in the skeleton. The histological examination of the bone marrow showed many, moderately well-differentiated plasma cells. Based on the collected findings and the exclusion of differential diagnoses, a Multiple Myeloma was diagnosed.
