Abstract

Oral symptoms and signs of multiple myeloma are common. An unusual case with pathologic fracture of the pterygoid process and external root resorption is presented. The literature is reviewed with respect to the prevalence of maxillofacial manifestations of multiple myeloma and the presence of such manifestations as the first sign and/or symptom of disease.
