“…Eletrophoresis of most cases showed decreased albumin and increased γ globulin ( 3 – 5 , 7 ) or M-peak ( 9 , 14 , 15 ). Consistent with few cases serum eletrophoresis showed normal ( 8 , 10 , 11 ). In this case, immunohistochemistry findings showed the infiltration of numerous lymphocyte and plasma cells positive for CD138 and CD38.…”

“…Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma (PPP) is an extremely rare variant of EMP. In a comprehensive literature search reviewing patients with PPP, only 16 reports were found (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15) summarized in Table 1). Here, we present an extremely unusual presentation as a pulmonary mass and without bone marrow involvement.…”

BackgroundExtramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is an extremely rare kind of soft tissue plasma cell neoplasm without bone marrow involvement or other systemic characteristics of multiple myeloma. Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma (PPP), with no specific clinical manifestations, is an exceedingly rare type of EMP. Because of its complexity, PPP is often difficult to diagnose. Computed tomography-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy (CT-guided PCNB) has been shown to have high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for characterization of pulmonary lesion, particularly if malignancy is suspected. Here we presented a rare case of PPP diagnosed with CT-guided PCNB.Case presentationA 78-year-old female smoker who visited our outpatient clinic for a mass in the left lower lobe of the lung. Pathological based on CT-guided PCNB yielded a PPP with no lymph node or other distant metastasis.ConclusionsExtramedullary plasmacytoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a pulmonary mass.

BackgroundExtramedullary plasmacytoma is a rare plasma cell neoplasm within soft tissue and without bone marrow involvement or other systemic characteristics of multiple myeloma. Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma is a rare type of extramedullary plasmacytoma.Case presentationA 48-year-old male with a tumor in the right middle ear was referred to our hospital. A routine chest X-ray was arranged and showed enlargement of the left lung hilum. His bilateral breathing sounded clear. A chest CT scan revealed a well-circumscribed mass. Pathological biopsy yielded a diagnosis of isolated pulmonary plasmacytoma.ConclusionsThis is the first presentation of primary pulmonary plasmacytoma with a solitary pulmonary nodule and no lymph node involvement.

Resumo: Neste artigo, analiso as incertezas em torno das obras de Aleijadinho, com vistas a sublinhar como argumentos sobre expertise são acionados em elaborações acerca da atribuição de autoria. Inicialmente, apresento o artífice/artista e como o referencial da antropologia da admiração (Heinich 1991) é profícuo para entender os efeitos da mitificação de sua trajetória e a importância conferida às suas obras no campo da arte brasileira. Em seguida, mostro como tais obras e outras imagens são vinculadas a noções de autoria, de estilo e de originalidade. Destaco, por fim, que imagens de santos e outras obras de arte podem se configurar como artefatos que devem ser decifrados por um olhar particular e revelador de afinidades entre domínios artísticos e mágico-religiosos.
