Core Tip	We report an unusual case of smoldering multiple myeloma with gastrointestinal symptoms (abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and blood in the stool). Gastrointestinal amyloidosis (light chain) (AL) was suspected based on the endoscopic findings of granular-appearing mucosa, ecchymosis, and submucosal hematoma. The diagnosis of gastrointestinal AL was confirmed by Congo red staining of biopsied tissues. The patient was doing well at the last follow-up of 5 years after chemotherapy which is the best prognosis among the reported cases of multiple myeloma with gastrointestinal AL.
