Solitary plasmacytoma of the jaw

Solitary plasmacytoma may be considered as a rare neoplasm of head and neck and is a different disease compared to multiple myeloma. The main difference is related to the better clinical prognosis of solitary plasmacytoma, which may be clinically silent for several years but several local recurrences may be possible once diagnosed and treated.

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 plasmacytoma of the thumb: Arare case report

  Abstract   A solitary plasmacytoma of bone occurs in approximately 2-5% of patients with   myeloma. The lesion mostly found in the axial skeleton and have infrequently been   reported to arise in the hand, and usually occur in the distal phalanges. We report the   interesting case of a 75-year-old man who developed a solitary lytic lesion of the   thumb proximal phalanx. This lesion was explo...

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...
