Two Cases of Solitary Plasmacytoma.

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 Mandible - Report of 2 Cases

A plasmacytoma is a discrete, solitary mass of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells in either bone or soft tissue (extramedullary). Solitary plasmacytomas can be divided into 2 groups according to location, plasmacytoma of the skeletal system (SBP) and extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) respectively. Less than 5% of patients with a plasma cell dyscrasia present with a single bone (SBP) or extramed...

Solitary Plasmacytoma of Bone

Solitary plasmacytoma (SP), histologically indistinguishable from multiple myeloma (MM), is a kind of malignant tumor characterized by the proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells. SP is an independent subtype of plasmacytoma, including extramedullary plasmacytoma and solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) [1]. Most solitary plasmacytomas progress to MM, and are usually treated in the department o...

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...
