    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pulmonology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Plasmacytomas are uncommon plasma cell neoplasms.
    • Endobronchial presentation of plasmacytoma is exceedingly rare and previously undescribed.
    • Distinguishing metastatic plasmacytoma from benign plasma cell lesions requires prolonged follow-up.

    Observation:

    • A 64-year-old woman presented with metastatic plasmacytoma.
    • The patient exhibited metastatic lung and endobronchial lesions.
    • No abnormal proteinuria or overt multiple myeloma was detected.

    Findings:

    • This case represents the first reported instance of endobronchial plasmacytoma.
    • Metastatic plasmacytoma can occur without systemic signs of myeloma.
    • Diagnostic challenges exist in differentiating metastatic from benign plasma cell tumors.

    Implications:

    • Radiation therapy is suggested as a primary treatment modality.
    • The efficacy of chemotherapy for metastatic plasmacytoma requires further investigation.
    • Increased awareness and prolonged surveillance are crucial for managing rare plasmacytomas.
