Abstract
A case of kappa light chain multiple myeloma with space-occupying hepatic plasmacytoma is presented. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging shows an eccentric multiple-layer pattern of the liver mass and suggests malignancy. Differential diagnosis concerning the MR appearance of this rare hepatic tumor is discussed.
