Solitary plasmacytoma of the pancreas: A rare case report.
Radiology Case Reports 2024 May
A plasmacytoma is a cancerous growth of abnormal plasma cells that arise within osseous or soft tissue structures. In soft tissue structures, plasmacytomas can present as solitary or multiple masses in the absence of systemic involvement. Solitary plasmacytomas can be subcategorized as extramedullary plasmacytoma (derived from plasma cells located in soft tissues) or osseous plasmacytoma (derived from plasma cells located in the bone marrow). Infrequently, these tumors can arise as extramedullary lesions from the pancreas and present similarly to other tumors, such as pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs). In this article, we report the case of a 62-year-old male with a diagnosis of solitary plasmacytoma of the pancreas. We focus on optimizing diagnosis and management through the application of radiological imaging modalities, specifically computed tomography (CT) scans and positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scans.
