Solitary Bone Plasmacytoma of the Pelvis: A Rare Tumor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Solitary bone plasmacytomas are part of a wide range of monoclonal neoplasms that share a common progenitor in the B lymphocyte lineage. In their particular case, a single bone lesion is found, most frequently on the axial skeleton, having evidence of no other osteolytic lesions or systemic involvement. Diagnosis can sometimes prove to be difficult as they are rare tumors, occurring in 3 to 5% (up to 10% in some series) of patients with plasma cell neoplasms, with important considerations regarding the differential diagnosis. We report a case of a solitary bone plasmacytoma, found on the ala of the left ilium of a patient during a routine consult due to hip pain.

Solitary Plasmacytoma of the Skull (SPS) is very rare and only 35 cases have been reported in the English literature. It remains controversial whether a solitary plasmacytoma of the skull is essentially identical with a Solitary Plasmacytoma of Bone (SPB) or not. A solitary plasmacytoma of bone, which includes a solitary plasmacytoma of the skull, is characterized by a radiologically solitary b...
متن کاملSolitary Plasmacytoma of the Sternum
Plasmacytoma is a plasma cell neoplasm that locally infiltrates a bone or spreads to extramedullary areas. A new World Health Organization criterion defines solitary plasmacytoma of bone as a localized bone tumor consisting of plasma cells identical to those seen in plasma cell myeloma, which is manifested as a solitary osteolytic lesion in a radiological evaluation. Primary tumors of the stern...

Solitary plasmacytoma of the bone, and especially of a single rib, is a rare disease. Here we report a 73-year old male patient complaining of continuous chest wall pain around the right 5th rib shaft who underwent a wide excision of the rib tumor with surrounding connective tissue. He was diagnosed with solitary plasmacytoma and will undergo radiation therapy. We report this case with a review...
