Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common blood cancer. Bone involvement is very common in these patients: it is estimated that between 80% and 90% will develop bone lesions during the course of the disease. This represents a potential risk of fragility and pain, significantly impacting the patient's functional status and therefore worsening their quality of life. \[1\] The presence of bone lesions also represents a risk for the development of Skeletal-Related Events (SREs), which can include: pathological fractures, vertebral compression that causes spinal cord compression, and the need for surgery or radiotherapy to treat the bone lesions. It is important to monitor and manage SREs as they are associated with increased mortality. With the improvement of treatments and increased survival rates, more and more patients require rehabilitation management, which includes therapeutic education, the prescription of orthoses/aids, and specific rehabilitation programs to address fatigue or cope with major events such as SREs. Also frequently needed are guidelines regarding safe physical activity and support for returning to work or resuming satisfying social participation. In many MM patients, bone involvement represents a challenge for the rehabilitation specialist, who must be able to perform an accurate assessment of the risks and benefits of treatment to avoid exposing the patient to unnecessary risks or complications.
