Tongue extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) with regional lymph node metastases is a very rare pathology. Despite being a rare entity, extramedullary plasmacytoma should be considered a differential diagnosis in cases of a mass or ulcer in the tongue. A 60-year-old lady presents with an ulcerative lesion over the right lateral border of the tongue with dimensions 3.5 × 2 cm for one year. Initially, on histopathological examination, a possibility of plasma cell neoplasm was suspected; on further IHC, serum protein electrophoresis, and radiological investigations, a definite diagnosis of solitary EMP of the right lateral border of the tongue with regional nodal metastases was confirmed. The patient received radiotherapy for the primary disease along with the involved neck nodal sites.
伴有区域淋巴结转移的舌部髓外浆细胞瘤(EMP)是一种非常罕见的病理情况。尽管是罕见疾病,但在舌部出现肿块或溃疡的病例中,髓外浆细胞瘤应被视为鉴别诊断之一。一名60岁女性,右侧舌缘有一个大小为3.5×2厘米的溃疡性病变,持续一年。最初,组织病理学检查怀疑有浆细胞肿瘤的可能;进一步通过免疫组化、血清蛋白电泳和影像学检查,确诊为右侧舌缘孤立性髓外浆细胞瘤伴区域淋巴结转移。患者接受了针对原发疾病及受累颈部淋巴结部位的放射治疗。
