description | Solitary Plasmacytoma (SP) is a rare disease characterised by a localised proliferation of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells, without
evidence of systemic disease. The aetiology of SP remains unknown, but chronic stimulation, overdose irradiation, viruses, and gene
interactions in the reticuloendothelial system have been suggested as the aetiologic factor. While pain is the most common symptom of
osseous mandible SP, it is usually painless in the maxilla and may manifest orally with paresthesia, swelling, soft tissue masses, mobility
and migration of teeth, haemorrhage, or pathologic fracture due to cortical destruction of bone. Because the amount of haemopoitic bone
marrow in the maxilla is decreased, oral involvement of the maxilla is less common than that of the mandible. Here, authors reported a case
of 46-year-old male patient presented with the chief complaint of mobility of his upper left back teeth and swelling over his left-side palatal
area. Clinical examination was suggestive of benign odontogenic tumors and salivary gland tumors, while two-Dimensional (2D) and
three-Dimensional (3D) imaging were suggestive of malignant tumors arising from either alveolar bone or maxillary sinus. The laboratory
investigations and biopsy revealed solitary plasmacytoma of maxilla. There were clinical symptoms of paresthesia and mobility, but no
other signs of malignancy were observed. As the case report concludes, all necessary investigations need to be conducted to exclude all
other pathologies, so that treatment can begin as soon as possible. |
