Core Tip	This case report describes an adult patient with acute respiratory failure, secondary to flail chest because of a multiple myeloma. It shows how positive pressure in airway, in conjunction with an early treatment with bortezomib and dexamethasone, may lead to a successful outcome for such patients with an otherwise poor prognosis.
