History Of

We report a rare case of an extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) in the frontal sinus with an indolent clinical presentation. Although a history of trauma was absent, the initial diagnosis was a mucocele, based on the radiological findings. Upon surgical excision, the patient was found to have an EMP. EMP, a form of solitary plasmacytoma, has a significantly high rate of conversion to multiple myeloma. This mandates long-term follow-up, even after successful radiotherapy and/or resection. While radiation therapy is generally considered a first line treatment for EMP, surgical intervention may provide optimal treatment in complicated cases. This case presentation highlights the prognosis of patients diagnosed with EMP.

Primary craniocerebral plasmacytomas are uncommon and represent only 0.7 % of all plasmacytomas. In this case solitary plasmacytoma in the midline frontal head region of the skull and discuss the clinical features and prognosis of this tumor. Plasmacytoma can present as multiple myeloma, solitary plasmacytoma of the bone or extramedullary plasmacytoma. Solitary plasmacytoma is a rare entity that composes of malignant plasma cells and involves the bone to form only one or two lesions without evidence of disease dissemination. It accounts for only 4% of malignant plasma cell tumors. 50 years old male was suffering from plasmacytoma in the frontal head region in our case which is pulsatile. On images showed multiple differential diagnosis but after operation histological examination revealed plasmacytoma. Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience 2016; Vol. 32 (1): 39-42

Extramedullary Plasmacytomas

Malignant plasma cell proliferation can be presented as part of disseminated disease of multiple myeloma, as solitary plasmacytoma of bone, or in soft tissue as extramedullary plasmacytoma. Extramedullary plasmacytomas represented approximately 3% of all plasma cell proliferation. Approximately 80% of extramedullary plasmacytomas occur in the head and neck region while the other 4% occur in the skin and to a lesser extent in the lip. In this paper, we report a rare case of primary cutaneous plasmacytoma involving the lip in a 65-year-old male. The patient presented with a nonhealing lower lip sore for the past 3 years. Upon further workup, there was no evidence of multiple myeloma or light chain disease. The patient was treated with radiation therapy and his last follow-up revealed no evidence of multiple myeloma or light chain disease.

Solitary Extramedullary Plasmacytoma

Solitary plasmacytoma (SP) is a malignant tumor caused by the monoclonal proliferation of plasma cells, representing less than 5% of plasma cell tumors. SP can be categorized into two groups: solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) and solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP). SEP most commonly occurs in the head and neck and is rarely located in the reproductive system. Here, we report a case of a 77-year-old woman with SEP in the cervix who had a 7-day history of vaginal bleeding. Ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an oval mass in the cervix, which was initially considered as neoplastic lesions and highly suspected to be cervical cancer, but cervical leiomyoma and other benign tumors cannot be completely excluded. Subsequently, cervical biopsy showed that the tumor was SEP, and then the patient underwent surgery. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was also SEP, which confirmed the radiologist’s misjudgment. In conclusion, SEP that occurs in the cervix is remarkably rare, and only nine cases have been reported in the cervix. No case reports to date have described in detail the imaging findings of cervical SEP. This study demonstrates the MRI imaging characteristics of a patient with SEP of the cervix and reviews the imaging findings of SEP reported in the previous literature, in order to provide more extensive insights for radiologists to consider the differential diagnosis of cervical lesions.

The plasma cell neoplasm is a rare malignant neoplasm of plasma cells that may present as Extramedullary Plasmacytoma (EMP) in soft tissues especially in the upper respiratory tract, in the bone as a Solitary Plasmacytoma of bone (SPB), or as a part of the multifocal disseminated disease as Multiple Myeloma (MM). The majority of 80% occurs in the head and neck region. In our case, a 23-year-old female patient presented with a non-tender swelling of the gingiva in the upper and lower jaws with the mobility of all teeth. The radiological examination showed severe destruction of bone around all teeth.

Solitary Extramedullary Plasmacytoma

Introduction. Plasmacytoma is an uncommon plasma cell neoplasm and its localized form is solitary plasmacytoma of the bone and solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma. Solitary plasmacytoma of the mesentery is extremely rare, reported only in a handful of cases. Case Presentation. A 47-year-old man with nonspecific abdominal complains was found to have an ill-defined mass on his mesenteric root. Laparoscopic biopsy and stepwise histopathological examination revealed a mesenteric plasmacytoma, and extensive imaging and laboratory investigations led to the diagnosis of the solitary mesenteric plasmacytoma. The patient underwent definitive radiotherapy and remains under remission one year later. Discussion. Plasma cell dyscrasias include a variant of proliferative disease, characterized by clonal expansion of bone marrow plasma cells, producing a massive quantity of monoclonal immunoglobulin called paraprotein or M-protein. Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma accounts for only 3–5% of all plasma cell neoplasms. Meticulous adherence to the established diagnostic criteria helps the clinician to set the correct, yet very unusual and unexpected diagnosis.

Biopsy Confirmation

Solitary plasmacytoma (SP) is characterized by a mass of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells in either bone (SBP) or soft tissue without evidence of systemic disease attributing to myeloma. Biopsy confirmation of a monoclonal plasma cell infiltration from a single site is required for diagnosis. The common presentation of SBP is in the axial skeleton, whereas the extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is usually seen in the head and neck. The ratio of SP seen at males to females is 2 : 1 and the median age of patients is 55 years. The incidence rate of SP in black race is approximately 30% higher than the white race. Incidence rate increases exponentially by advancing age. SBP has a significant higher risk for progression to myeloma, and the choice of treatment is radiotherapy (RT) that is applied with curative intent at min. 4000 cGy. By only RT application, long-term disease-free survival (DFS) is possible for approximately 30% of patients with SBP and 65% of patients with EMP.
