Thyroid plasmacytoma mimicking medullary carcinoma: A potential pitfall in aspiration cytology

et al. 2000

Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP), a malignant neoplasm of the soft tissues composed of plasma cells, may occur either as a solitary plasma‐cell tumor (primary EMP) or as a manifestation of multiple myeloma (secondary EMP). We report on the aspiration cytology findings of an intriguing case of EMP of the thyroid that was initially misinterpreted as medullary carcinoma on clinical and cytologic examination. A major contributing cause for the cytologic misinterpretation was the presence of amyloid in the aspirate and the clinical impression of a “thyroid mass.” Based on this experience, we suggest that EMP should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a neck mass that yields discohesive cells associated with amyloid/amyloid‐like material. Clinical correlation and immunocytochemistry are crucial in avoiding pitfalls in this situation. Diagn. Cytopathol. 2000;23:354–358. © 2000 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Extramedullary plasmacytoma of the submandibular gland

2001

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Extramedullary plasmacytoma in the submandibular region is rare and on initial evaluation must be distinguished from multiple myeloma. The diagnostic evaluation includes appropriate radiological and pathological studies including immunohistochemistry. We report a case of extramedullary plasmacytoma in the submandibular gland. A review of the literature suggests that it has a good prognosis, if multiple myeloma is excluded. This patient was treated by surgical excision followed by radiotherapy.
