Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Hematology

Background:

  • Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell malignancy primarily affecting the bone marrow.
  • Extramedullary plasmacytomas can occur, but breast involvement is exceptionally rare.

Observation:

  • This study reports a rare case of breast plasmacytoma.
  • The case is associated with a concurrent diagnosis of multiple myeloma.

Findings:

  • A review identified 37 published cases of breast plasmacytoma between 1928 and 1999.
  • Analysis focused on the clinical features of this rare presentation.

Implications:

  • Understanding the clinical presentation of rare breast plasmacytomas is crucial for diagnosis.
  • This case contributes to the limited literature on extramedullary plasmacytomas in the breast.
