متن کاملExtramedullary Myeloma
Extramedullary myeloma (EMM) is the presence of clonal plasma cells (PCs) outside the bone marrow in a patient with multiple myeloma (MM). EMM can be present at the time of initial diagnosis (primary EMM) or at the time of relapse (secondary EMM) [1]. EMM has an incidence of 7% to 20% at presentation and 6% to 20% during disease progression [2]. Using sensitive imaging techniques including MRI ...

They originate in either bone--solitary osseous plasmacytoma, or in soft tissue--extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP). EMP represents less than 1% of all head and neck malignancies. CASE REPORT We presented a case of EMP of the nasal septum in a 44-year-old male who had progressive...
متن کاملExtramedullary Waldenström macroglobulinemia.
Disease assessment in Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia (WM) is dependent on the percent involvement of B-cell neoplasm in the bone marrow and IgM paraprotein in the serum. A subset of patients also demonstrates extramedullary involvement, which is infrequently examined. The role of extramedullary involvement in the diagnosis and prognosis of WM is poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to...
