Synchronous Occurence of Extramedullary Plasmacytoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Larynx

Abstract

Exramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx is rare, especially when coexisted with squamous cell carcinoma. A 62-year-old male presented with history hoarseness and dyspnea. After laryngoscopic examination biopsy was performed epiglot and left ventricular band. The pathological examination revealed with the diagnosis of plasmacytoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The diagnosis of multiple myeloma was excluded as nonspesific results were obtained flow cytometry and peripheral blood smear. This case is the second repord of syncronous squamous cell carcinoma and extramedullary plasmacytoma of the larynx in the literature.

LARİNKSTE SKUAMÖZ HÜCRELİ KARSİNOM VE EKSTRAMEDÜLLER PLAZMASİTOM BİRLİKTELİĞİ

Öz

Larinksin ekstramedüller plazmasitomu az görülmekte olup, özellikle de skuamöz hücreli karsinom ile birlikteliği oldukça nadirdir. 62 yaşındaki ses kısıklığı ve nefes darlığı şikayetleri ile başvuran erkek hastaya laringoskopi yapılıp epiglot ve sol band ventrikülden biyopsi alındı, patolojik inceleme sonrası skuamöz hücreli karsinom ve plazmasitom tanısı aldı. Periferik yayma ve flow sitometri bulgularında özellik saptanmaması ile multipl myelom ekarte edilerek ekstramedüller plazmasitom olarak değerlendirildi. Bu vaka literatürdeki larinkste ekstramedüller plazmasitom ve skuamöz hücreli karsinom birlikteliği gösteren ikinci vakadır.
