What is plasmacytoma

summary

My mother told me that she always felt uncomfortable recently, and she always felt chest tightness. So I accompanied her to the hospital for examination. The doctor said that she found that the shadow of her left lower lung was unknown, and the left lower lobe was resected, which seemed to be plasmacytoma. Today, let me tell you something about plasmacytoma.

What is plasmacytoma

First, plasmacytoma is a kind of primary and systemic malignant tumor originated from bone marrow, which is derived from B lymphocytes and has the nature of plasma cell differentiation. Solitary plasmacytoma is rare and can be cured. The cytoplasm of these cells is rich, the color is dark, basophilic and the boundary is clear. The nucleus is round and eccentric.

Second: plasmacytoma refers to the proliferation of malignant plasma cells outside the bone marrow, including solitary plasmacytoma and extramedullary plasmacytoma of bone. Local radiotherapy is the first choice for treatment. If the lesion is limited and easy to be resected, the effect of local radiotherapy after surgical resection is better.

Third: plasmacytoma is a malignant tumor composed of plasma cells with different degrees of differentiation. According to the occurrence and location of the tumor, it can be divided into multiple myeloma and primary extramedullary plasmacytoma. Tumor cells can be identified as plasma cells, at least some of them can be identified as plasma cells.
