Plasmacytoma

Plasmacytoma is a localized mass of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells that represents approximately 5% of all plasma cell neoplasms. There are two separate entities: primary plasmacytoma of the bone and extramedullary plasmacytoma of the soft tissues. Of the extramedullary plasmacytomas, 80% occur in the head and neck, usually in the upper respiratory tract. The median age at diagnosis is 50 years and the male to female ratio is 3:1. Long-term survival is possible following local radiotherapy, particularly for soft tissue presentations.

	Plasma-cell cheilitis: successful treatment with intralesional injections of corticosteroids.
	Tseng JT, Cheng CJ, Lee WR, Wang KH. Clin Exp Dermatol. 2009;34(2):174-7.
	A diagnosis of plasma-cell cheilitis was made after excluding contact dermatitis, lichen planus, bacterial, fungal and spirochaete infections, and an extramedullary plasmacytoma.

	Plasma cell cheilitis.
	Rocha N, Mota F, Horta M, Lima O, Massa A, Sanches M. J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol. 2004;18(1):96-8.
	Differential diagnosis should consider allergic/irritant contact cheilitis, candidiasis, syphilis, Queyrat's erythroplasia, granulomatous cheilitis, plasmoacanthoma, plasmacytoma, squamous cell carcinoma and exfoliative or factitious cheilitis.

	Plasma cell orificial mucositis. Report of a case and review of the literature.
	White JW Jr, Olsen KD, Banks PM. Arch Dermatol. 1986;122(11):1321-4.
	Plasma cell orificial mucositis must be differentiated from numerous other entities, including erythroplasia of Queyrat, allergic contact mucositis, plasmacytoma, plasmoacanthoma, syphilis, candidiasis, and cheilitis granulomatosa.
