چکیده
A myeloma is an abnormal proliferation of plasma cells derived from reticulum cells (Innes and Newall, 1961). Four types are usually differentiated: multiple myeloma when tumours are scattered through the skeleton; solitary myeloma or plasmacytoma when the lesion is localized to a single focus in a bone; extramedullary plasmacytoma when the lesion is found in extraosseous sites such as the upper respiratory tract or gastrointestinal tract; and plasma cell leukaemia when myeloma cells are found in the blood. A case of extramedullary plasmacytoma originating in the stomach is now reported.
