Live broadcast｜No regrets about having a tumor——Big names talk: All about multiple myeloma

The International Myeloma Foundation (IMF) proposed to designate March of each year as "International Myeloma Awareness Month" to encourage medical staff, patients and related caregivers to take action and enhance society's awareness of myeloma.

Myeloma is a malignant tumor originating from bone marrow plasma cells. It mainly occurs in the middle-aged and elderly population aged 40 to 60 years old. It can be divided into single and multiple. Single cases are called plasmacytomas, and most are multiple. Common clinical symptoms of multiple myeloma include bone disease, anemia, renal impairment, hypercalcemia, etc. Although the pathogenesis is still unclear and cannot be cured, choosing an appropriate treatment plan can significantly prolong the patient's survival. So, how to diagnose multiple myeloma? What are the treatment options?

The "Famous Doctors on the Sea" platform under Shanghai Media Group specially invited Hou Jian, director of the Department of Hematology of Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Zhong Lu of the Department of Hematology, and Cai Yongmei, head nurse of the Department of Hematology, to jointly present the live video broadcast of "No Regrets about Tumors - Big Names Talk about Multiple Myeloma".
