Solitary extramedullary plasmacytomas are plasma cell tumors that tend to develop in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues including the sinonasal or nasopharyngeal regions. Primary plasmacytoma of the lung is exceedingly rare and often presents as a solitary mass or nodule in mid-lung or hilar areas and diagnosed after resection. Herein, we report a case of primary pulmonary plasmacytoma that presented with diffuse alveolar consolidation and diagnosed by transbronchial lung biopsy.
孤立性髓外浆细胞瘤是一种浆细胞瘤，倾向于在包括鼻窦或鼻咽区域在内的黏膜相关淋巴组织中发生。原发性肺浆细胞瘤极为罕见，常表现为肺中部或肺门区域的孤立性肿块或结节，在切除后得以诊断。在此，我们报告一例原发性肺浆细胞瘤，其表现为弥漫性肺泡实变，并通过经支气管肺活检得以诊断。
