THREE CASES OF PLASMACYTOMA IN OTOLARYNGOLOGICAL REGION

Abstract

The authors report three cases of plasmacytoma, one extramedullary plasmacytoma and the othertwo multiple myelomas.
The first case developed in the nasopharynx, the second case in the right frontal sinus and the thirdin the larynx.
The diagnoses of the 3 cases were confirmed by histopathological, radiological and biochemical studies.
The 3 cases were treated by MIP therapy (Melfaran, Ifosfamide and predonine) and irradiation.
The authors recommend radiation therapy even for cases of extramedullary plasmacytoma in orderto prevent local recurrence and metastasis.
