In secondary osteoporosis, amazing etiologies can be found: We report on two cases of nonsecretory myeloma, which had been diagnosed by investigations for osteoporosis. In this connection the diagnostic value of bone-density evaluation by densitometry and high-resolution tomography is discussed and illustrated.
