Abstract :
Covid-19 infection has more relevant consequences in frail and comorbid patients but little is known about its course in patients with hematologic malignancies. In this report we would like to present the case of a patient with multiple myeloma treated with recent autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation and affected by Covid-19 pneumonia, presenting with a possible reinfection or an extremely long viral shedding.
