Clinical Diagnosis DYSPHAGIA SECONDARY TO A SOLITARY PLASMACYTOMA
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 frequently convert to multiple myeloma.

متن کاملGuidelines on the diagnosis and management of solitary plasmacytoma of bone and solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma.
Most patients with plasma cell neoplasia have generalized disease at diagnosis, i.e. multiple myeloma (MM). However, a minority (<5%) of patients with plasma cell malignancies present with either a single bone lesion, or less commonly, a soft tissue mass, of monoclonal plasma cells: solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) or extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP). SBP has a high risk of progression to MM a...

Solitary plasmacytoma of the skull is rare and few cases have been reported in the English literature. Plasmacytoma of the skull has a wide spectrum of pathology, including a quite benign, solitary plasmacytoma (SPC), and an extremely malignant, multiple myeloma (MM) at the two ends of the spectrum. The prognosis for solitary plasmacytoma of the skull appears to be good when it can be diagnosed...
