Abstract
Solitary plasmacytomas are more frequent in males than
females. We are describing a solitary extramedullary
plasmacytoma of the breast in a 50 year old woman on
fine needle aspiration cytology and confirmed on histology.
During 6 months of fallow up, no other involvement was
detected in the bone marrow or in any other site.
Extramedullary plasmacytoma occur in lymph node, lung,
thyroid, gastrointestinal tract testis, and skin. Extramedullary
plasmacytoma of breast is a rare lesion. Especially those
are not associated with multipal myeloma. Most reported
cases represent secondary involvement or initial
manifestation of the multipal myeloma.
