The most aggressive and rare manifestation of multiple myeloma is plasma cell leukaemia (PCL). While secondary form of PCL represents those heavily pretreated cases when leukaemic transformation develops terminally after intensive chemotherapy in patients with multiple myeloma, primary cases are characterized by leukaemic symptoms present at diagnosis. The secondary form has a rapid progression. The management of PCL is still unsolved. The authors present a case of a patient with non-secretory multiple myeloma who had developed plasma cell leukaemia after peripheral stem cell transplantation. PAD (bortezomib, doxorubicin, dexamethasone) treatment resulted in complete remission and 9-month survival of the patient. Previous case reports in the literature and our experience have revealed PAD protocol to be well tolerated and effective in PCL. Combination of PAD treatment with autologous and/or allogenic stem cell transplantation might further improve patients' outcome.
