Multiple myeloma (MM) has the propensity to spread to vertebral bodies; however, extramedullary plasmacytomas involving the central nervous system are extremely rare.
The authors report the first intradural extramedullary plasmacytoma in the lumbar region of the spine in a patient with preexisting MM. They present a 50-year-old female with severe back and radicular pain and progressive neurological deficit.
MM is typically treated with chemotherapy and radiation therapy. However, in this unique case, resection proved to be a key part of treatment.
多发性骨髓瘤(MM)易于扩散至椎体;然而,累及中枢神经系统的髓外浆细胞瘤极为罕见。
作者报告了首例发生于一名已有MM患者腰椎区域的硬脊膜内髓外浆细胞瘤。他们介绍了一名50岁女性,有严重的背部和神经根性疼痛以及进行性神经功能缺损。
MM通常采用化疗和放疗进行治疗。然而,在这个独特的病例中,手术切除被证明是治疗的关键部分。
