Regional solitary plasmacytoma of the costa is a rare disease and is characterized by only one or two isolated bone lesions. We report the case of a solitary plasmacytoma of the bone of the right chest wall in an adult. The patient underwent complete enbloc resection of the chest wall including ribs, muscle and parietal pleura. The patient is asymptomatic without any recurrence after two months...

Solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) is a rare disease, defined as clonal proliferation of plasma cells identical to those of plasma cell myeloma, which manifest as localised osseous growth with no evidence of disease dissemination. We report a case of solitary plasmacytoma of Right 6 rib in 28-year-old male. The patient underwent complete en-bloc resection of the chest wall harbouring the tumou...

Extramedullary plasmacytomas are rare tumors. In majority of cases tumors arise in the head and neck region and endobronchial localization is extremely rare. The treatment is usually resection alone or combination of surgery with radiotherapy. Herein we present a case of solitary endobronchial plasmacytoma which was resected with bronchoscopic electrocautery, because of extremely rare occurrenc...

Plasma cell neoplasms of the head and neck region can be extramedullary plasmacytoma of the bone, solitary plasmacytoma of the bone, and local manifestations of multiple myeloma. A 70-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital with diplopia of four-day history. Magnetic resonance imaging showed soft tissue in the sphenoid sinus. Endoscopic biopsy was taken from the sphenoid sinus, which...

the presence of decyclase. The biosynthetic demonstration of PCA decylase in a human plasmacytoma producing a Bence Jones protein with a cyclized glutaminyl amino-terminal residue contrasted to the absence of demonstrable decyclase in a murine plasmacytoma, which was also producing a Bence Jones protein with a cyclized glutaminyl amino terminus. These results indicate a lack of correlation betw...

Laryngeal plasmacytoma is rare in Japan; to the best of our knowledge, only 8 other cases have been previously reported. We report a new case of extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx in a 76-year-old Japanese woman. Immunohistochemical investigation revealed that her disease had not progressed to multiple myeloma. The patient declined radiotherapy, and her condition remained stable at the 6...

CONTEXT Pancreatic plasmacytoma is a rare entity and presents with features of mass lesion of pancreas. CASE REPORT We present an interesting case of pancreatic plasmacytoma with life threatening gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to isolated gastric varices. CONCLUSION This case highlights the importance of considering it in differential diagnosis of patients with anemia, recurrent pancre...

Solitary extramedullary plasmacytomas are plasma cell tumors that tend to develop in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues including the sinonasal or nasopharyngeal regions. Primary plasmacytoma of the lung is exceedingly rare and often presents as a solitary mass or nodule in mid-lung or hilar areas and diagnosed after resection. Herein, we report a case of primary pulmonary plasmacytoma that pre...
