65 year old man who is anaemic, complaints of back pain multiple radiolucencies in panaromic view______________?

Correct answer: A. Multiple myeloma

  • A. Multiple myeloma
  • B. Osteosarcoma
  • C. Giant cell granuloma
  • D. Eosinophilic

Explanation

An older patient with anaemia, back pain, and multiple punched-out radiolucencies strongly suggests multiple myeloma, caused by malignant plasma-cell proliferation. Osteosarcoma and giant-cell lesions are usually more localised rather than producing this classic widespread pattern.
