[Imaging of solitary maxillo-mandibular plasmacytoma].

CT was performed in three patients with plasmacytoma of the maxilla and mandible. CT allows improved depiction of the tumor and associated local invasion and bony destruction but remains non-specific. Histology is mandatory for diagnosis and work-up necessary to confirm the solitary nature of the lesion. Intraosseous intramedullary lesions often evolve to multiple myeloma after a few years whereas extramedullary lesions, commonly involving sinonasal structures, typically remain solitary.
