Renal Riddles Unveiled: Decoding Homogeneous Kidney Enlargement in Multiple Myeloma

Renal plasmacytoma is a rare extramedullary manifestation of plasma cell neoplasms (PCN). We present the case of a 62-year-old male with a history of relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (MM) who developed secondary renal plasmacytoma after an eight-year remission period. Radiological findings on plain CT raised concern for the most common renal malignancy, i.e. renal cell carcinoma (RCC), while further imagining evaluation with MRI suggested renal lymphoma, highlighting the diagnostic challenge of renal plasmacytoma on imagining. A renal mass biopsy confirmed a kappa-restricted plasma cell tumor, emphasizing the need for accurate differentiation between renal plasmacytoma and other renal malignancies to guide appropriate treatment strategies. Increased awareness of such cases can lead to timely recognition and tailored management for this rare entity.
