Importance: There are significant gaps in the literature pertaining to the locoregional control and survival rates of extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) with respect to various treatment approaches., Objective: To systematically evaluate the differences in radiotherapy and surgical outcomes in EMP., Data Sources: Databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and ScienceDirect were systematically searched from their inception up to November 2023., Study Selection: Articles reporting radiotherapy and surgical outcomes of head and neck EMP were included., Data Extraction and Synthesis: A random-effects model for meta-analysis was used to obtain pooled estimates and calculate hazard ratios for survival and odds ratios for recurrence and progression of EMP., Main Outcomes and Measures: Survival, tumor control, and progression rates to multiple myeloma (MM) between radiation therapy and surgery for EMP of the head and neck., Results: Of 742 included patients from 12 studies, 527 (71.0%) were male, and the median (IQR) age was 59.1 (53-62) years. A total of 505 patients (68.1%) received radiotherapy only, while 237 (31.9%) underwent surgery-only treatment for EMP. All included patients had an initial diagnosis of EMP without MM. Comparable trends were observed in overall survival and disease-free survival (DFS) rates at 2, 3, 5, and 10 years between patients with EMP treated with radiotherapy only and surgery only. Notably, there were no significant differences in recurrence rate (odds ratio, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.20-2.06) between radiotherapy-only and surgery-only treatment. However, radiotherapy-only treatment of EMP was associated with decreased odds of progression to MM compared with surgery (odds ratio, 0.4; 95% CI, 0.1-0.9). Sensitivity analysis revealed that the radiotherapy-only population had significantly better 5-year DFS (hazard ratio, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.31-0.96) compared with surgery-only treatment., Conclusions and Relevance: This systematic review and meta-analysis provides evidence that patients with EMP receiving radiotherapy had significantly lower chances of progression to MM compared with surgery-only therapy. Additionally, radiotherapy had better 5-year DFS outcomes compared with surgery. Comparable outcomes in terms of overall survival rates, recurrence, and mortality rates were noted between radiotherapy-only and surgery-only EMP treatment groups.

Background: Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare solitary malignancy that accounts for 3% of plasma cell neoplasms, and EMP with a primary occurrence in the palate is extremely uncommon. Owing to the long course of EMP and the limited available data on treatment outcomes, there are no definitive guidelines for its management, especially for high-risk patients who are more susceptible to early progression to multiple myeloma., Case Presentation: In this study, we review nine relevant studies and describe a 54-year-old woman who presented with an asymptomatic nonulcerative mass localized in the palate. After initial radical surgical resection of the lesion, the patient was definitively diagnosed with EMP with minimal plasmacytosis in the bone marrow, and adjuvant intensity-modulated radiation therapy with a minimum dose of 39.6 Gy was administrated in the surgical area. There was no evidence of local recurrence, nodal metastasis or progression to multiple myeloma (MM) during the seven-year follow-up period., Conclusion: Given the atypical clinical features of palate EMP reported in the literature and the encouraging results of our patient, sequential therapy involving surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy for primary palatal lesions in high-risk EMP patients without nodal involvement could be an effective treatment modality., (© 2024.

A plasmacytoma is a single, isolated tumour of abnormal plasma cells. It can develop within the bone, known as solitary plasmacytoma of bone, or outside the bone, referred to as extraosseous (extramedullary) plasmacytoma, without spreading to other parts of the body. Plasmacytoma, an uncommon presentation in the posterior mediastinum, usually arises as solitary or multiple lesions in bone or soft tissues. The standard treatment involves definitive radiotherapy, potentially curative for extramedullary cases. The prognosis varies, being more favourable without concurrent multiple myeloma and worsening with high-risk cytogenetics. The case involves a male in his early 80s with an extensive medical history presenting with difficulty swallowing and dyspnoea. The diagnosis revealed a rare posterior mediastinal plasmacytoma associated with multiple myeloma, emphasising the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2024.

We report a case of extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx that was eradicated by radiotherapy; however, 8 years later, the disease had progressed to multiple myeloma. A mid -60s Japanese woman presented with a right-sided arytenoid mass in the larynx who underwent biopsy at another hospital. Based on the biopsy results, the patient was diagnosed with extramedullary plasma cell tumour and was referred to the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at our hospital. She received radiotherapy (50.4 Gy) and the laryngeal tumour was eradicated. Positron emission tomography/CT (PET-CT) revealed no abnormal accumulation in the larynx or whole body. After radiotherapy, the department of otorhinolaryngology, in consultation with Ddepartment of haematology performed follow-ups using laryngoscope, blood examination and PET-CT. Five years after the end of radiotherapy, the patient had no local recurrence or transition to multiple myeloma. However, 8 years later, blood examination and PET-CT revealed multiple myeloma. Laryngoscopy did not reveal any recurrent laryngeal tumour. Therefore, chemotherapy for multiple myeloma was administered at the department of haematology. Three months after the initiation of chemotherapy, the accumulation had disappeared in PET-CT. Three years have passed since chemotherapy initiation. At present, no recurrence or metastasis was observed in the larynx or whole body., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2024.

Background: Intracranial plasmacytomas are rare tumors arising from plasma cells with approximately half of the cases progressing to multiple myeloma (MM). However, there is a lack of comprehensive clinical cohort analysis on the clinical and pathological features, progression, and outcomes of intracranial plasmacytomas., Methods: A retrospective analysis of 190 cases was conducted, combining data from 38 cases in a single institution and 152 cases from the literature. Patient demographics, clinical presentations, tumor locations, imaging features, surgical treatments, and follow-up outcomes were collected and analyzed. Survival analysis and Cox regression analysis were performed to identify prognostic factors., Results: A total of 190 intracranial plasmacytoma patients with an average age of 55.4 years were included in the study. The preoperative misdiagnosis ratio was high at 55.3%, and 59.7% of the tumors affected the calvaria convexity, compared to 40.3% located at the skull base. Resection and biopsy were achieved in 72.4% and 27.6% patients, respectively. Among them, 34.2% (65/190) of patients were initially diagnosed with MM with intracranial plasmacytoma as their first presentation (MM-IPFP), while 63.2% (120/190) of patients were diagnosed with solitary intracranial plasmacytoma (SIP), including 61 extramedullary plasmacytomas and 59 solitary bone plasmacytomas. In the SIP group, 22.4% (24/107) of patients experienced disease progression leading to the development of MM during a median follow-up time of 42.6 months (range 1-230 months). Multivariate analysis unveiled that radiotherapy (HR, 0.05; 95% CI, 0.00-0.87; p = 0.04), not surgery, was a protective prognostic factor for overall survival in MM-IPFP patients. Comparison between the SIP progression group and non-progression group revealed a significant difference of Ki-67 index (non-progression vs. SIP progression, 8.82% ± 7.03 vs. 16.5% ± 10.5, p < 0.05). AUC analysis determined that a cutoff value of 9.0% was the best predictor of SIP progression, with an area under the curve of 0.712., Conclusions: This retrospective clinical analysis highlights the potential role of radiotherapy, rather than surgical resection, in improving the outcomes of intracranial plasmacytoma. Additionally, the Ki-67 index is identified as a valuable marker for predicting disease progression. This would provide some evidence for the paradigm of diagnosis and treatment modalities for intracranial plasmacytomas from the large cohort., (© 2024 The Authors.

Plasmacytoma is a rare plasma cell dyscrasia that grows in bones or soft tissues such as the pharynx. Soft tissue plasmacytomas are rare, and a higher burden has been reported in the upper aero-digestive tract, often manifesting as hoarseness, dysphagia, or odynophagia. Due to their rarity, extramedullary plasmacytomas (EMPs) have unknown prognostic factors, and guidelines for optimal management are still lacking. However, radiation therapy and surgery have been used with positive outcomes. Herein, we describe a unique case of plasmacytoma of the pharyngeal tissue in a male patient with a history of HIV disease. The patient completed 28 sessions of radiation therapy, resulting in an improvement in his throat pain and hoarseness. Given the patient's age and lack of traditional risk factors for head and neck cancers, his hoarseness and odynophagia proved to be a diagnostic conundrum. Although infrequent, soft tissue plasmacytomas should be considered in the differential diagnosis of head and neck tumors., Competing Interests: Declaration of Conflicting InterestsThe author(s) declared no potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.

Extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx is an extremely rare entity accounting for 0.04-0.45% of malignant tumours of the larynx. The objective of this clinical case report is to highlight the diagnosis and management of a unique case such as this. A 77-year-old gentleman presented with complaints of hoarseness for 1 year. Computed tomography image revealed a soft tissue mass lesion involving the right true vocal cord. Direct laryngoscopic biopsy was performed and subjected to histopathological examination, which showed collection of plasma cells. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the presence of Kappa and Lambda cells. Multiple myeloma (MM) was ruled out. The patient received radical intent radiation therapy using 3DCRT technique with a dose of 50Gy in 25# over 5 weeks. He experienced improvement in hoarseness on subsequent follow-up visits. At 1-year follow up, positron emission tomography computed tomography showed near total resolution of disease with no progression to MM. Radiation therapy alone is known to achieve good local control, recurrence free survival, and organ preservation in such cases., (Copyright © 2023 Copyright: © 2023 Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics.)

Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a benign round cell tumor that is most commonly found in cutaneous locations in dogs and occurs less frequently in the oral cavity. They are highly radiosensitive, are distinct from systemic multiple myeloma syndrome and wide surgical excision is typically curative. This report describes five cases of non-invasive oral EMP in dogs treated with a combination of marginal excision and strontium-90 plesiotherapy. All five cases had narrow or incomplete margins on histopathologic evaluation but experienced no recurrence after combination therapy. Plesiotherapy radiation may offer a potential adjunct treatment for non-invasive oral EMP by providing a superficial dose of radiation that complements a less invasive surgical removal. The combination of plesiotherapy and marginal excision may offer an alternative to wide surgical excision for non-invasive oral EMPs.

Extramedullary plasma cell tumor (EMP) is a kind of plasma cell tumor, and its pathogenesis is not completely clear. According to whether it is independent of myeloma disease, it can be divided into primary and secondary EMP, which have different biological and clinical characteristics. Primary EMP has low invasion, fewer cytogenetic and molecular genetic abnormalities and good prognosis, and surgery and / or radiotherapy are the mainly treatments. Secondary EMP, as the extramedullary invasive progression of multiple myeloma (MM), is often accompanied by high-risk cellular and molecular genetic abnormalities and poor prognosis, chemotherapy, immunotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are the mainly treatment. This paper reviews the latest research progress of EMP in the pathogenesis, cytogenetics molecular genetics and treatment, so as to provide reference for clinical work.

Objective: Although recurrence rates after radiotherapy for solitary plasmacytoma (SP) are well established, little is known about how SP responds radiographically, as most historical patients were treated in the 2D era. We evaluated the response to radiotherapy among SP patients staged and treated with 3D techniques, including proton therapy, which has not yet been previously reported., Methods and Materials: Between 2007 and 2021, 15 SP patients (4 extramedullary, 11 bone) staged with 3D imaging and bone marrow evaluation were consecutively treated with definitive radiotherapy. The best response was categorized in 9 evaluable patients according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) and positron emission tomography response criteria in solid tumors (PERCIST)., Results: With a median follow-up of 34 months, 4 patients relapsed. The median time to the best response was ~2 years (26.6 mo RECIST, 25.4 mo PERCIST). Response rates differed based on response assessment criteria. PERCIST was associated with higher rates of complete (85.7%) or partial response (14.3%) compared with RECIST (16.7% complete, 33.3% partial). Two-year and 4-year PFS for extramedullary SP were 100% and 75%, compared with 91% and 55% for bone ( P =0.75). Patients treated with proton therapy (n=5) did not appear to have different patterns of relapse (1 marginal, 1 distant) compared with those treated with photons or electrons (n=10; 2 distant)., Conclusions: More conformal dose distribution with proton therapy does not appear to alter patterns of recurrence. Although response rates differ based on criteria by both RECIST and PERCIST assessments, the radiographic response may be slow and requires validation in other cohorts., Competing Interests: No author received any source of funding or support for this work.

Background: Comprehensive studies on the prognosis of solitary bone plasmacytoma (SPB) are lacking, especially in elderly patients with SPB. This study aims to establish a novel nomogram and risk stratification system to predict the overall survival (OS) of elderly patients with SPB., Methods: The data of elderly patients with SPB from 2000 to 2017 were identified in the SEER database. SPB patients were randomly assigned to the training set ( n = 825) and validation set ( n = 354). The Cox regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for OS in elderly SPB patients. The nomogram was established and assessed by the area under the receiver operating curve (AUC), the consistency index (C-index), and the calibration plot. Patients were divided into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups based on the score of the nomogram. The Kaplan-Meier (K-M) curve was used to verify the differences in overall survival among the three groups., Result: A total of 1,179 elderly patients with SPB were included in the study. Age at diagnosis, prior cancer before SPB, marital status, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy were independent risk factors of OS. The AUC of the 3, 5, and 8-year OS in the training and validation sets were between 0.707 and 0.860. The C-index and calibration plot also indicated that the nomogram has great predictive accuracy and robustness. After risk stratification, patients in the high-risk group had the worst OS., Conclusion: A novel nomogram was built to predict the OS of elderly patients with SPB. It will help clinicians formulate more reasonable and personalized treatment strategies., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2022 Wu, Wei, Chen, Liu and Cao.)

Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a plasma cell neoplasm of soft tissue without bone marrow involvement or other systemic characteristics of multiple myeloma. Approximately 80%-90% of EMPs involve the head and neck region, especially in the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, tonsillar fossa, and oral cavity. An EMP of the larynx is extremely rare and is a locally destructive lesion without systemic spread. Clinical features vary depending on the tumor location. A diagnosis is established by histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and a systemic survey to exclude systemic plasma cell proliferative diseases. Extramedullary plasmacytomas are highly radiosensitive and radiotherapy is therefore used as a treatment. In this study, we report on a rare case of EMP of the larynx evaluated with computed tomography and present histopathologic findings for a 74-year-old female patient., (Copyright © 2020 SERAM.

Plasma cell neoplasms are a group of diseases involving the malignant proliferation of plasma cells. One common type of plasma cell neoplasm is multiple myeloma, which typically occurs diffusely in the bone marrow. It can manifest with a variety of presentations, including bone pain, fractures, anemia, infection, hypercalcemia, and renal failure. A less common type of plasma cell neoplasm is the solitary plasmacytoma, which is a local proliferation of plasma cells in the bone or extramedullary tissues. They rarely recur after local radiation therapy.An 83-year-old woman was noted on routine labwork to have elevated total serum protein, and serum immunofixation confirmed IgG/Kappa paraprotein. There was no evidence of end-organ damage characteristic of myeloma: hypercalcemia, renal dysfunction, anemia, or bone lesions. She was diagnosed with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and placed on observation. Seven years later, she developed mild anemia and an increasing M spike. No abnormalities were found on bone marrow biopsy apart from mildly increased plasma cell proliferation (7-10% of total cells). A PET scan showed increased gastric uptake, concerning for possible gastric malignancy. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopic ultrasound revealed extrinsic compression of the stomach fundus and body due to a 40 mm mass and associated adenopathy. Pathology revealed a kappa-restricted plasma cell neoplasm positive for CD138.The patient underwent radiation therapy localized to the gastric area. Subsequent evaluation revealed a persistent gastric mass. Attempted biopsy resulted in a gastrointestinal bleed, rendering her unable to undergo treatment with lenalidomide and aspirin. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy with bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone. The case illustrates the potential diversity of plasma cell dyscrasia clinical manifestations. Gastric plasmacytomas are an uncommon type of extramedullary plasmacytoma, particularly rare when resistant to radiation therapy.

Background: Treatment options for patients with solitary plasmacytoma (SP) or multiple myeloma (MM) should be discussed in an interdisciplinary context. This systematic review focuses on the importance of radiotherapy in MM and SP., Objective: Summary of local radio-oncological treatment options for patients with SP and MM., Materials and Methods: Based on a systematic literature search, the current evidence on the topic was analyzed and summarized., Results: Patients with SP should be primarily treated with radiotherapy with or without surgery. Irradiation concepts may vary depending on risk factors and manifestation (solitary bone plasmacytoma vs. solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma). Although local control rates are high after radiotherapy, progression to multiple myeloma frequently occurs. In patients with MM, radiation is mainly used in palliative settings for pain relief, prevention of fractures or in patients who suffer from neurological symptoms due to spinal cord compression. Irradiation dose and fractionation should be selected based on treatment indication and general condition of the patient., Conclusion: Although most patients receive systemic treatment at initial diagnosis, approximately 40% of patients with MM will require radiation during the course of their disease. While radiation is mainly used for palliation in patients with MM, it represents the primary and curative treatment option in patients with SP., (© 2021.

The management of myeloid and lymphoid disease is essentially based on chemotherapy and targeted therapies. Since radiotherapy could be responsible for severe late toxicities, essentially due to conventional bidimensional irradiation techniques, many trials have attempted to omit radiotherapy or to scale down the dose in their therapeutic strategy. Nevertheless, radiotherapy still plays a role for curative or symptomatic purposes., (Copyright © 2021 Société française de radiothérapie oncologique (SFRO). Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.

We present an extreme rare case of extramedullary nasal plasmacitoma that arise from nasal septum. The mass surgically removed was analyzed by a pathologist who diagnosed an extramedullary nasal plasmacytoma. The patient did not present systemic involvement. A short cycle of radiotherapy was performed after the surgery. At 9-month follow-up, the patient is recurrence free.

Objectives: Solitary plasmacytoma (SP) is characterized by a single mass of clonal plasma cells. Definitive RT can result in long-term local control of the SP. Due to the small number of patients and narrow range of doses, phase III randomized trials are lacking. The aim of this study is to further support the potential use of RT for the treatment of SP., Methods: Clinical data of all patients treated for SP at our Institution between 1992 and 2018 were reviewed. A total of 42 consecutive patients were analyzed., Results: The median follow-up was 84.8 months. Radiation dose did not differ significantly as a function of sex, type of SP (solitary bone plasmacytoma or as extramedullary plasmacytoma), tumor size; conversely differs significantly as a function of age (p = 0.04). The 5y-OS and 10y-OS were, respectively, 96 and 91%. Local recurrences developed in 21.4% of patients (9/42). 16 patients progressed to MM (38.1%). The 5y-progression to MM free survival (PMFS) and the 10y-PMFS were, respectively, 68.6 and 61.9%., Conclusions: Our data confirm that good results are achievable with RT to treat SP, but they don't allow defining a dose-effect correlation; therefore, it remains uncertain which is the most effective dose and whether lower doses can guarantee adequate disease control.

Background: Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP) is a localised proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells involving soft tissue with no or minimal bone marrow involvement and no other systemic evidence of multiple myeloma. Intraocular involvement is exceedingly rare., Case Presentation: We report a 78-year-old man who was referred with glaucoma in the right eye. He subsequently developed anterior chamber (AC) inflammation and refractory glaucoma then dense vitritis. A vitrectomy was performed with the biopsy revealing numerous plasma cells with atypical findings. In conjunction with the flow cytometry results, and a systemic work up excluding multiple myeloma, a diagnosis of SEP was made. The patient was treated with ocular external beam radiotherapy with resolution of the intraocular inflammation and control of the intraocular pressure. He remains well with no local recurrence and no development of multiple myeloma over a follow up period of 2.5 years., Conclusions: This is the first case report of SEP presenting as intraocular inflammation without a uveal tract mass.

Background: There have been reports on the use of hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for bone plasmacytomas, but no prospective data are available. We present the initial analysis of an ongoing prospective protocol on SBRT addressing the feasibility and safety of this treatment for solitary bone plasmacytomas., Patients and Methods: A prospective cohort of SBRT for solitary bone plasmacytoma was developed. Patients could receive different doses depending on the index bone, from single fraction for skull base lesions, 24 Gy in 3 fractions for spine lesions, and 30 Gy in 5 fractions for other bones. Overall survival, bone events, local control, and progression to multiple myeloma (MM) were measured and compared to our retrospective cohort of patients treated with conformal standard-dose radiotherapy. Quality of life was assessed via the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire, and toxicities were assessed by the CTCAE v5.0 criteria. After 1 year or the inclusion of 5-10 patients, a feasibility and safety analysis was programmed., Results: Between April 2018 and April 2019, 5 patients were included. All were male, with a median age of 53.1 years. The median follow-up was 21.8 months. No patient had local progression, bone event, or died. Two patients had progressions to MM. The mean survival free of progression to MM was 18.6 months, compared to 19 months in the retrospective cohort; median values were not reached. There were no grade 3 toxicities., Conclusion: SBRT for plasmacytoma is safe and feasible. More robust data are awaited., (© 2021 S. Karger AG, Basel.)

Thirty dogs with macroscopic plasma cell tumours (PCTs) were treated with radiation therapy (RT). Twelve patients were treated with palliative-intent prescriptions (range, 4-10 Gy/fraction (median, 7 Gy/fraction) for a total dose of 20 to 35 Gy (median total dose 30 Gy). Eighteen patients received definitive-intent prescriptions (range, 3.0-4.2 Gy/fraction (median, 3 Gy/fraction) for a total dose of 42 to 54 Gy (median total dose 48 Gy). Involved sites included the oral cavity, skin, multiple myeloma (MM)-associated lytic bone lesions, bone (solitary osseous plasmacytoma; SOP), nasal cavity, larynx, retrobulbar space, lymph node and rectum. Ninety-five percent of evaluable dogs had a complete (CR; 16/22) or partial response (PR; 5/22). Patients with MM experienced significant analgesia. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 611 days (range: 36-2001 days). Events in the non-MM cases included in-field progression (5/26, 19%) and disseminated disease (5/26, 19%). The median survival time (MST) for all dogs was 697 days (range: 71-2075 days), and when only non-MM cases were considered, MST was 771 days (range: 71-2075 days). Fourteen patients were alive without disease progression or had died of unrelated causes. Achievement of a PR was associated with an inferior PFS and MST as compared with CR. Palliative-intent RT was associated with inferior MST as compared with definitive-intent RT. RT is a useful therapeutic modality for PCTs and tumour responses are often complete and durable, with protracted survivals. The optimal radiation dose and schedule are yet to be defined., (© 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

Objective: Definitive radiotherapy (RT) with or without surgery is the standard of care for solitary plasmacytoma. Here, we report clinical outcomes for this rare malignant neoplasm., Patients and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of adults with solitary plasmacytoma treated with definitive RT between 1963 and 2015 at a single institution, and assessed disease control, survival, and toxicity per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4., Results: A total of 42 patients with solitary plasmacytoma of the bone (SPB, n=27) or extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP, n=15) were treated with definitive RT with (n=11) or without (n=31) surgical resection. The median age at diagnosis was 59 years (range: 28 to 76 y).Twenty-two patients had tumors ≥5 cm and 20 had tumors <5 cm. Immunoglobulins were elevated in 23 patients and M-protein in 14. The median RT dose was 45 Gy (range: 15 to 54 Gy) over a median 25 fractions (range: 1 to 38 fractions) with 3 patients receiving twice-daily fractionation and 6 received elective nodal irradiation. No patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. The median follow-up was 10.3 years. The 10-year local control rate after RT was 88%. Five patients who developed a local recurrence had SPB ≥5 cm. The 10-year multiple myeloma-free survival rates were: overall, 47%; SPB, 24%; and EMP, 87% (P=0.0012). The 10-year cause-specific survival rate was 75%: 64% for SPB versus 93% for EMP (P=0.0116). The 10-year overall survival rate was 60%. Three patients experienced late grade 2+ toxicity., Conclusions: Definitive RT with moderate doses results in excellent local control. We observed a higher rate of progression to multiple myeloma and lower survival in patients with SPB compared with EMP.

Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP) of the larynx is a rare haematological malignancy and an infrequent cause of persisting dysphonia. We present the case of a 54-year-old woman with a long-standing history of dysphonia. While clinical examination showed a rather inconspicuous prominent right vestibular fold, an MRI revealed a laryngeal mass with erosion of the thyroid cartilage. A biopsy taken during rigid endoscopy demonstrated plasma cell infiltration with light chain restriction amidst amyloid deposits. After exclusion of systemic involvement, the diagnosis of an SEP of the larynx with secondary amyloidosis was made. The patient received primary radiation therapy. Another biopsy taken 3 months after the end of therapy did not show any signs of ongoing neoplastic plasma cell disease. The patient was therefore considered to be in remission. She is currently receiving regular follow-up and has not shown signs of persistent or progressive disease for the past 18 months., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2020.

Objective: To investigate the outcomes of radiotherapy with or without surgery during treatment of patients with solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SBP) of the spine., Methods: Patients diagnosed with SBP of the spine treated with radiotherapy with or without surgery were identified and extracted from the SEER database. Propensity score matched (PSM) analysis was performed to balance patient characteristics between radiotherapy alone and radiotherapy with surgery groups. Patients in different age-groups were stratified and analyzed., Results: A total of 1275 patients with SBP of the spine treated with radiotherapy with or without surgery were extracted from the SEER database. Before PSM, the unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve showed that the radiotherapy with surgery group had worse overall survival than did the radiotherapy without surgery group (both P < 0.05), whereas the difference of overall survival was attenuated after PSM. Stratified analysis found that the radiotherapy with surgery group had less progression to multiple myeloma for young patients (age <45 years) with SBP of the spine than did the radiotherapy without surgery group., Conclusions: The results of our study suggest that radiotherapy with surgery may show less progression to multiple myeloma for younger patients with SBP of the spine., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Background Context: Solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) can progress to multiple myeloma (MM). Little attention has been paid to the reossification findings on computed tomography (CT) and their correlation with prognosis after radiotherapy with/without surgery., Purpose: To evaluate reossification after radiotherapy and prognostic factors of spinal SPB using single-center data., Study Design: Retrospective observational study., Patient Sample: Patients who had spinal SPB and received radiotherapy with/without surgery, without chemotherapy, denosumab or zoledronic acid., Outcome Measures: MM progression rate, mortality rate, and reossification rate at 12 months., Methods: This retrospective clinical review included 39 patients who underwent radiotherapy as first-line treatment for SPB in the spine. External radiation was divided into 20-25 fractions with a total dose of 35-46 Gy. At the 12-month follow-up after the index radiotherapy, significant and mild reossification, defined as bone formation with ≥30% or 0%-30% increase, respectively, in bony area based on increase in CT values were documented, along with progressive disease, which was a decrease in bony area with lesion enlargement. This study was funded by AO Foundation, AOSpine (AOSDIA2019-026) (CHF45,000), Peking University Medicine Seed Fund for Interdisciplinary Research (BMU2018MX022) (¥40,000), and Peking University Third Hospital (No. Y71508-01) (¥400,000)., Results: Twenty-six men and 13 women (mean age, 51.5 years) were included. Solitary plasmacytomas were located in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae in 16, 17, and 6 patients, respectively. The mean clinical follow-up period after treatment was 72 (range 12-216) months. Sixteen patients (41.0%) had significant reossification after radiotherapy, 21 (53.8%) showed mild reossification, and 2 (5.2%) had progressive bony destruction (after 7 and 23 months, respectively). There were no significant differences in age among the three groups (p=.127). At a mean follow-up of 37 (range 6-90) months after radiosurgery, 14 (35.8%) patients developed MM, including 9 patients who died at a mean duration of 55 (range 19-102) months. In the significant reossification group, only 1 patient (6.3%, 1 of 16) had MM progression 82 months after treatment (p=.044). In the mild reossification group, 56.5% (13 of 23) of patients had MM progression. The significant reossification rates of the radiotherapy dose groups of <40 Gy and ≥40 Gy were 35.7% and 44% (p=.614), respectively. In the univariate analysis, age ≥65 years (p<.001), tumor ≥5 cm (p=.009), Spinal Instability Neoplastic Score scores ≥11.5 (p=.040), radiotherapy (RT) combined with surgery (p<.001), and progression to MM (p=.007) were the independent prognostic factors for overall survival; whereas, age >44 years (p=.045) and RT combined with surgery (p<.001) were for multiple myeloma-free survival. In the multivariate analyses, age >65 years (p=.004) and progression to MM (p=.007) were the unfavorable independent factors for overall survival, whereas RT combined with surgery (p=.004) was the only factor for multiple myeloma-free survival., Conclusions: In patients with spinal SPB, 41.0% lesions showed significant reossification after radiotherapy. Patients with significant reossification had a better prognosis with less possibility of MM progression. Radiotherapy may be a safe and effective treatment choice for spinal SPB; more attention should be paid to reossification., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Purpose: The primary objective was to determine in our department the progression-free survival rate of patients with solitary bone plasmocytoma and secondarily to evaluate its diagnostic, therapeutic and evolutionary aspects., Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective review of 12 patients monitored and treated in the radiotherapy department of the Mohammed-V military medical teaching hospital in Rabat for a solitary bone plasmocytoma between January 2012 and December 2018. The average age of our patients were 53.8 years old (range: 31-72 years old). Pain was the most common telltale sign. The site of the lesions was spinal in four cases, iliac in four cases, mandibular, ribal, humeral and at the level of the astragalus in one case respectively. All patients received radiotherapy. This irradiation was delivered alone in 60% of cases or associated with surgery in 40% of cases. The average dose of radiotherapy was 47.3Gy (range: 45 to 50.4Gy) and this was delivered by a modulated volumetric arc therapy technique in ten patients and conformal tridimensional radiotherapy in two patients., Results: Local control, defined by stability or radiological regression, was obtained in ten patients and four patients progressed to multiple myeloma, two of whom died. The average duration of follow-up was 51 months., Conclusion: Radiation therapy is the standard treatment for solitary bone plasmocytoma. It ensures good local control in 90% of cases. The prognosis is affected by progression to multiple myeloma, which justifies rigorous monitoring after treatment and suggests a reflection on the exact place of chemotherapy., (Copyright © 2019 Société française de radiothérapie oncologique (SFRO).

Purpose: To characterize local relapse after surgical fixation and postoperative radiotherapy (RT) for multiple myeloma (MM) with cortical involvement of long bones., Patients and Methods: We retrospectively identified patients with MM involving cortical long bones treated with surgical fixation followed by postoperative RT at our institution. Local failures, defined as radiographic recurrence along the surgical hardware, were documented, and potential associations of independent variables (RT dose, fractionation, and extent of hardware coverage) with local failure were assessed by univariate Cox regression., Results: We identified 33 patients with 40 treated sites with a median follow-up of 25.7 months; 68% of treatments were for pathologic fracture, and 32% were for impending fracture. The most common dose and fractionation were 20 to 25 Gy in 8 to 12 fractions. On average, 76% of the surgical hardware was covered by the postoperative RT field (median, 80%; range, 28%-100%). Local failure was observed in 5 cases (12.5%), 2 within the RT field and 3 out of field. None of the relapses resulted in hardware failure, and 2 were retreated with RT. The extent of hardware coverage predicted disease relapse along the hardware (hazard ratio = 6.44; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-37.97; P = .04); however, total RT dose, biologically effective dose, and number of fractions did not., Conclusion: After internal fixation of long bones with MM, full hardware coverage with the RT field could reduce the risk, though small, of disease developing in the future in the proximate hardware. Postoperative RT doses of 20 to 25 Gy in 8 to 10 fractions can achieve excellent local control., (Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Purpose : Multiple myeloma is an insidious haematological malignancy characterised by monoclonal proliferation of plasma cells in the bone marrow. Extramedullary plasmacytoma is a rare manifestation of multiple myeloma and usually occurs in the upper respiratory tract. Orbital involvement is particularly uncommon, but may be associated with devastating visual impairment and poor clinical outcomes. Therefore, this article aims to highlight the need for multidisciplinary management of orbital extramedullary plasmacytoma. Methods : This is a retrospective observational case series of five patients. All presented to the authors for management of orbital extramedullary plasmacytomas from 2004 to 2015 at Prince of Wales and Mater Hospitals in Sydney, Australia. Medical records were reviewed for pertinent information including demographics, disease features, management strategy, and clinical progress. The study met Medical Ethics Board standards and is in accordance with the Helsinki Agreements. Results : This case series of five patients underscores the poor prognosis of orbital extramedullary plasmacytoma. Despite aggressive multidisciplinary management, four of these five patients succumbed to their illness during the study period. However, multidisciplinary management did manage to minimise symptoms and preserve quality of life. Conclusions : On a case-by-case basis, patients may derive palliative benefit from orbital surgery in conjunction with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Orbital surgeons are encouraged to work within a multidisciplinary framework of medical specialists, including haematologists and radiation oncologists, when determining the optimal management plan in cases of orbital extramedullary plasmacytoma.

Isolated malignant extramedullary plasma cell proliferations known as plasmocytomas are rare. They usually occur in the head and the neck (80% of cases) and exceptionally elsewhere. We report the case of a 62-year old patient with solitary plasmacytoma of the lung initially mimicking primary lung cancer. The purpose of this study was to describe our therapeutic approach and to emphasize the rarity of this case, the prognostic factors as well as the management of these tumors based on a literature review., Competing Interests: Les auteurs ne déclarent aucun conflit d'intérêts., (© Badr Elmorabit et al.)

Background: Patients with plasma-cell neoplasia usually suffer from systemic disease, although a minority (< 5%) may present with solitary involvement of bone or soft tissue (extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP)). Radiotherapy (RT) is a state-of-the-art treatment for these tumors offering long term curation., Methods and Materials: Between January 2005 and January 2017, twenty-seven patients underwent RT at our institution. The aim of this study was to analyse the effectiveness of various RT doses for different forms of EMP., Results: A total of 33 radiation courses were administered to 27 patients with a median age of 56 years. The median RT dose was 45 Gy (range: 12-55.8). The local control rate was 76% (93% for primary EMP vs. 61% for the secondary EMP lesions; P < 0.05). A complete response (CR) rate to local RT was achieved for 42% lesions (67% for primary EMP vs. 22% for the secondary EMP lesions; P < 0.01). The overall response rate (ORR) for the EMP lesions treated with high-dose regimens (> 45 Gy) versus low-dose regimens (≤ 45 Gy) was 87% versus 67%, respectively (P = 0.2). The median survival with high-dose RT group was significantly longer (P = 0.02). In subgroups analysis, primary EMP patients treated with high-dose RT had a non-significant higher ORR (100% vs. 80%, respectively; P = 0.3,) longer duration of LC (P = 0.3) with a longer survival (P = 0.05) than patients in low-dose group. No significant difference has been detected in secondary EMP patients treated with high-dose RT regarding ORR (60% vs. 62%, respectively; P = 1), and survival (P = 0.4)., Conclusion: RT is an efficacious treatment modality in the treatment of EMP. A radiation dose ≤45 Gy confer a comparable CR rate to high-dose regimens and appears to be an effective treatment for controlling local EMP progression. Radiation dose-escalation may be beneficial for particular subgroups of patients.

Extramedullaryplasmacytoma (EMP) represents a peculiar and typically progressive malignancy that can originate outside the bone marrow. Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma (PPP) is a rare subset of EMP, confined to the lung. A 55-year-old man, diabetic, non-smoker presented to our clinic with a right chest wall swelling. A routine chest radiograph showed a well-circumscribed opacity in the right upper lung zone. A CT of the chest revealed a large right upper lobe mass with extensive local infiltration. Biopsy and immunohistochemical evaluation led to a diagnosis of PPP. Screening for multiple myeloma was negative. Serum immunofixation showed an IgG lambda monoclonal gammopathy, found in a minority of PPP patients. In view of disease extent, treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy was initiated. The patient is currently in out patient follow-up and has shown a favourable response to the treatment with a considerable decrease in serum IgG levels., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2019.

Study Design: Retrospective analysis., Objective: To determine the prognostic indicators in patients with solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) of the spine., Summary of Background Data: Population-level estimates for prognosis among patients with SPB of the spine are still lacking. Sociodemographic and clinical predictors of outcome have not been well characterized., Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Registry was used to identify all patients with SPB of the spine from 1995 through 2014. Associated population data were used to determine annual incidence and limited-duration prevalence. Overall survival (OS) estimates were obtained using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared across groups using log-rank test. A Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis of survival. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of the progression to multiple myeloma (MM)., Results: The incidence and prevalence of the disease increased during the study period. Spinal SPB most commonly affected older people (>50) with a male preponderance. The median OS were 74.0 months. The 5 and 10-year survival rates for these patients were 56.1% and 36.7%, respectively. On multivariable analyses, older age, and surgery without radiotherapy were correlated with poor survival of patients with spinal SPB. The 3-year probability of progression to MM was 10.1%. Patients aged >70 years were associated with progression to MM. There was no significant association between the methods of surgical resection (radical or local/partial) and OS or progression to MM., Conclusion: The findings of this study provide population-based estimates of the incidence, prevalence and prognosis for patients with SPB of the spine. This analysis indicated that the only identifiable prognostic indicators were older age and surgery without radiotherapy. Moreover, the methods of surgical resection did not influence the OS or progression to MM., Level of Evidence: 4.

In conclusion, extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMPs) initially develop as localized disease. These tumors are quite sensitive to radiotherapy (RT) and the response is often complete recovery after RT. In addition, highly sensitive, conformal radiosurgery can be preferred to conventional RT; however, further studies are needed to define indications and therapeutic fractions in stereotactic RT of plasmacytoma since guidelines and clinical trials are lacking. Although general principles are valid, radiosurgery may be planned based on anatomical localization of EMP.

Purpose: To develop guidelines for the work-up and radiation therapy (RT) management of patients with plasma cell neoplasms., Methods and Materials: A literature review was conducted covering staging, work-up, and RT management of plasma cell neoplasms. Guidelines were developed through consensus by an international panel of radiation oncologists with expertise in these diseases, from the International Lymphoma Radiation Oncology Group. RT volume definitions are based on the International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements., Results: Plasma cell neoplasms account for approximately one-fifth of mature B-cell neoplasms in the United States. The majority (∼95%) are diagnosed as multiple myeloma, in which there has been tremendous progress in systemic therapy approaches with novel drugs over the last 2 decades, resulting in improvements in disease control and survival. In contrast, a small proportion of patients with plasma cell neoplasms present with a localized plasmacytoma in the bone, or in extramedullary (extraosseous) soft tissues, and definitive RT is the standard treatment. RT provides long-term local control in the solitary bone plasmacytomas and is potentially curative in the extramedullary cases. This guideline reviews the diagnostic work-up, principles, and indications for RT, target volume definition, treatment planning, and follow-up procedures for solitary plasmacytoma. Specifically, detailed recommendations for RT volumes and dose/fractionation are provided, illustrated with specific case scenarios. The role of palliative RT in multiple myeloma is also discussed., Conclusions: The International Lymphoma Radiation Oncology Group presents a standardized approach to the use and implementation of definitive RT in solitary plasmacytomas. The modern principles outlining the supportive role of palliative RT in multiple myeloma in an era of novel systemic therapies are also discussed., (Crown Copyright © 2018. Published by Elsevier Inc.

Solitary plasmacytomas are uncommon plasma cell disorders, which may present as a single bone lesion (P-bone) or extramedullary plasmacytoma (P-EM). There is a paucity of large studies analyzing prognostic factors and outcomes of plasmacytomas. While the treatment of choice is radiation therapy (RT), there is a lack of data evaluating optimal RT dose. In this study, we sought to answer these questions by utilizing the National Cancer Database plasmacytoma data from 2000 to 2011. A total of 5056 patients were included in the study (median age 62 years; range 52-72). To obtain a pure plasmacytoma cohort, potential multiple myeloma patients were excluded from the study (bone marrow involvement, systemic chemotherapy use). P-bone constituted 70% of the patients. The median overall survival (OS) of P-EM was significantly longer than P-bone (132 vs. 85 months), and for soft/connective tissue it was worse than remainder of P-EM (82 vs. 148 months). On multivariable analysis, factors associated with worse OS included older age (≥65), presence of P-bone, and treatment with a radiation dose <40 Gy.

Purpose of Review: To discuss the diagnostic approach, treatment options, and future considerations in the management of plasmacytomas, either solitary or in the context of overt multiple myeloma (MM)., Recent Findings: Advanced imaging techniques such as whole-body magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography/computerized tomography are essential for the diagnostic workup of solitary plasmacytomas (SP) to rule out the presence of other disease foci. The role of flow cytometry and clonal plasma cell detection is currently under study together with other prognostic factors for the identification of patients with SP at high risk of progression to overt MM. Solitary plasmacytomas are treated effectively with local radiotherapy whereas systemic therapy is required at relapse. Clonal plasma cells that accumulate at extramedullary sites have distinct biological characteristics. Patients with MM and soft tissue involvement have poor outcomes and should be treated as ultra-high risk. A revised definition of SP that distinguishes between true solitary clonal PC accumulations and SP with minimal bone marrow involvement should be considered to guide an appropriate therapeutic and follow-up approach. Future studies should be conducted to determine optimum treatment approaches for patients with MM and paraskeletal or extramedullary disease.

In this single-center, population-based, and retrospective study, we analyzed the outcome of 49 patients with solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) and 28 patients with solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP), all treated with radiotherapy. Laminectomy was performed in 18/30 SBP patients with vertebral involvement and tumour resection in 10 SEP patients. Overall survival and cause of death for each patient were compared to 5 sex-, age-, and residency-matched individuals from the normal population. Response (complete and partial) was achieved in 94% of SBP and 96% of SEP patients. Relapse rates were higher in SBP (65%) compared to patients with SEP (18%) (P < .01). Only one in-field relapse was identified for the whole series. Ten- and 15-year overall survival, progression free survival (PFS) and multiple myeloma free survival (MMFS) for patients with SBP were 60%/41%, 25%/17%, and 33%/33%. Corresponding values for patients with SEP were 67%/54%, 57%/44%, and 91%/91%. SBP patients had significantly shorter PFS and MMFS compared to SEP patients (P < .01 for both). Only two of the SEP patients developed multiple myeloma and no patient in the whole series progressed to multiple myeloma later than 10 years after diagnosis. Unlike for SEP, the major cause of death among SBP patients was multiple myeloma (49%). Compared to matched normal population, no increased risk of death from secondary malignancies or cardiovascular disease was observed. Positive predictors in SBP patients were for overall survival age <60 years, combined laminectomy and radiotherapy and radiotherapy dose >40 gray, for PFS tumour size <6 cm and combined laminectomy and radiotherapy and for MMFS tumour size <6 cm. Radiotherapy confers excellent local control in both SEP and SBP patients; however, the challenge is to prevent development of multiple myeloma in patients with SBP., (Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.)

Solitary plasmacytoma is a rare disorder comprising 5%-10% of all plasma cell neoplasms. Progression to multiple myeloma is the most common pattern of relapse. Appearance of new lesions without any systemic disease is the most unusual pattern of relapse seen in <2% cases. We present a case of a 46-year-old female who presented with features of third and seventh cranial nerve palsy, diagnosed with solitary plasmacytoma, with no evidence of any systemic disease. As per standard recommendations, the patient received radiotherapy to the local site. The patient developed relapse twice, at three sites, during the follow-up period. Investigations revealed no evidence of any systemic disease. In view of repeat relapses, the patient was started on immune modulatory agent. Two and half years after the last radiotherapy, the patient is symptom free with no evidence of any new lesion., Competing Interests: Competing interests: None declared., (© BMJ Publishing Group Ltd (unless otherwise stated in the text of the article) 2017.

Extramedullary solitary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare type of malignancy. This paper presents a retrospective review of the experience with EMP at the Krakow Oncology Center. Records of 17 patients with head and neck EMP, treated with definitive radiotherapy between 1976 and 2009, were analyzed. The total tumour dose ranged from 45 to 70 Gy (median 56 Gy). In four patients with partial response after radiotherapy, adjuvant melphalan-based chemotherapy was applied. The median follow-up period was 8.6 years. The treatment was well tolerated. The estimated 10-year overall survival, disease-free survival, and multiple myeloma-free survival were 68.4%, 49.3%, and 55%, respectively. The 10-year local control rate was 90.9%. No in-field local recurrence was observed. During the follow-up, progression into multiple myeloma was observed in five patients, with a mean time to conversion of 24 months. The only factor adversely affecting overall survival on univariate analysis was the age >56 years, whereas a complete tumour regression after radiotherapy was associated with a significant improvement in both disease-free survival and multiple myeloma-free survival. Despite the high effectiveness of local radiotherapy, there is still a significant treatment failure risk due to the EMP conversion into generalized disease. An attempt to identify prognostic factors may facilitate selection of patients with a high risk of progression to multiple myeloma.

Post-thrombotic syndrome is common after iliofemoral vein thrombosis. Conservative therapy, mainly limited to compression and anticoagulation therapy, might not be sufficient in controlling symptoms. Interventional recanalization of the chronically occluded iliac veins is an evolving method, promising rapid relief of symptoms. Here, we present two cases of complex interventions in one patient with preceding pelvic radiotherapy due to a plasmacytoma and in another patient in whom a cava wedge resection had been performed because of cystic echinococcosis in the liver.

Background: Solitary plasmacytoma of the liver is a very rare and aggressive form of plasma cell dyscrasia. To the best of our knowledge, very few cases have been reported without systemic disease. We reported a rare case of hepatic solitary plasmacytoma that successfully responded to fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy., Case Presentation: A 64-year-old white French man had monoclonal gammopathy of the immune globulin G lambda type; he developed a cholestasis and cytolysis with the discovery of a subscapular nodule. A biopsy showed plasma cells and, for several reasons, the decision was made to use the fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy strategy. After 20 months, he is asymptomatic and the immune globulin G component has completely disappeared., Conclusion: We suggest considering Cyberknife® radiosurgery as an option for the treatment of hepatic solitary plasmacytoma.
