Abstract

The incidence of Multiple Myeloma (MM) is about 1% of all malignancies and 15% of hematologic malignancies. There are several difficulties during the intra operative management of patients with MM. In recent years, Tranexamic Acid (TXA) has been reported to be used safely without increasing the risk of venous thromboembolism and other complications. The present case report aimed to introduce the management of massive bleeding of a MM patient undergoing lumbar instrumentation.
