Dysphagia Secondary to a Solitary Plasmacytoma

Clinical Diagnosis DYSPHAGIA SECONDARY TO A SOLITARY PLASMACYTOMA

Solitary plasmacytomas are tumors of plasma cell origin that constitute less than 10% of all plasma cell neoplasms. These tumors are categorized as extramedullary plasmacytomas (non-osseous) or solitary plasmacytomas of bone (osseous). Extramedullary plasmacytomas frequently remain localized and usually can be treated effectively with radiation therapy, whereas solitary plasmacytomas of bone fr...

Solitary Plasmacytoma of the Humerus

Solitary Plasmacytoma

Solitary plasmacytoma is a rare disease characterized by a localized proliferation of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells, without evidence of systemic disease. It can be subdivided into solitary bone plasmacytoma if the lesion originates in bone, or solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma if the lesion involves a soft tissue. The incidence of solitary bone plasmacytoma is higher than solitary extr...

Solitary Plasmacytoma of the Mandible: Report of a Rare Case

Solitary bone plasmacytoma belongs to a group of lymphoproliferative clinical disorders typified by clonal proliferation of plasma cells. Solitary plasmacytoma typically involves a single bone or extramedullary site. It commonly occurs in the vertebrae or thorax, and rarely involves the mandible. The aim of this report is to present a rare case of solitary plasmacytoma of the jaws mimicking per...

Solitary extraosseous plasmacytoma

Plasma cell neoplasms are characterized by a neoplastic plasma cell lineage which produces a monoclonal immunoglobulin. These neoplasms can present as a single lesion (solitary plasmacytoma) or as multiple lesions (multiple myeloma). Solitary plasmacytomas most frequently occur in bone (plasmacytomas of bone), but can also be found outside bone in soft tissues (extramedullary plasmacytomas).
