“…The number of gastric plasmacytoma cases reported in Japanese journals is increasing, and to date, we identified 95 patients presented in Japanese case reports. Early extramedullary gastric plasmacytomas with the depth to the submucosa or mucosa level have become more frequent in Japan, 51 cases to date that have been reported mostly in Japanese manuscripts ( 4 - 19 ). Table shows the determined characteristics.…”

A 56-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with a growing gastric submucosal tumor. An upper endoscopic examination revealed two gastric tumors, an original polypoid tumor and a newly diagnosed superficial tumor. Boring biopsied specimens of the submucosal tumor showed gastric plasmacytoma; however, the other specimens showed no malignancy. Blood diseases were ruled out using various examinations; therefore, we diagnosed the tumor as extramedullary gastric plasmacytoma. The patient underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy, and both tumors were thus revealed to be plasmacytomas. We experienced a rare case with two differently shaped extramedullary gastric plasmacytomas without significant morphologic change during the follow-up.

An 84-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a stomach tumor. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed an ulcerated tumor of 2 cm in diameter with a thickened wall without a clear margin. The tumor gradually increased in size and developed a different appearance over the course of three months. A biopsy specimen showed no definite malignancy, and contrast-enhanced CT showed no evidence of lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis, which would have indicated malignancy. However, PET revealed abnormal accumulation in the tumorous lesion. Therefore, laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with lymph node dissection was performed. A histopathological examination revealed gastric plasmacytoma. The tumor was located and localized in the submucosal and muscular layers without lymph node metastasis. The patient has survived for more than five years after surgery without adjuvant therapy.
