Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University, Dalian, Liaoning Province, China.
Article Synopsis
- Extramedullary plasmacytoma is a rare malignant tumor found in tissues outside of bone marrow, with primary pulmonary plasmacytoma (PPP) being particularly uncommon and diagnosed through biopsy.
- A 65-year-old woman experienced chronic cough and was hospitalized with acute chest pain, where imaging revealed extensive lung inflammation.
- The diagnosis was confirmed via bronchoscopy, leading to hormone anti-inflammatory treatment; however, the patient was lost to follow-up, emphasizing the need for awareness and biopsy in similar cases to ensure proper diagnosis and management of PPP.

Department of Neurosurgery, National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery, Mexico City, Mexico.
Background: Parasellar plasmacytomas are rare neurosurgical entities. Intrinsic characteristics of these tumors, such as adjacent bone erosion and symptoms resulting from invasion and mass effect, may lead to the possibility of a solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP) as a differential diagnosis.
Case Description: We present the case of a 39-year-old male with a 1-month history of bilateral decreased visual acuity, retroocular pulsating pain, and chromatic vision loss.

Primary malignant bone tumors of the spine are exceedingly rare, with solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) representing approximately 30% of all cases. Radiological assessments are crucial for localizing SBP and for ruling out a diagnosis of multiple myeloma (MM). Imaging features resembling a "mini-brain" appear to be distinctive for SBP.
