“…14,32,45,53 The remainder of soft tissue metastases have occurred as the first manifestation of disseminated disease or in the presence of established metastatic disease. 8,9,14,17,19,33,38,[41][42][43]55 It is probable that those occurring late and in the presence of disseminated disease are grossly underrepresented in the literature, because they likely present little diagnostic dilemma nor chance for cure with aggressive treatment. Hence, these patients would be unlikely to be referred to an musculoskeletal oncologist for evaluation or treatment, as all new patients in this series were.…”

“…As with the other tumors mentioned above, all the cases described of extramedullary plasmacytoma involving the extrahepatic biliary tract involved secondary infiltration of the bile duct and gallbladder consequent to widespread disease [6,[23][24][25]. To our knowledge, no case of primary gallbladder extramedullary plasmacytoma has been published in the English language medical literature.…”

Primary hematolymphoid malignancies of the extrahepatic biliary tract are rare tumors. We report five cases of primary hematolymphoid malignancies involving the extrahepatic biliary tract. One is a granulocytic sarcoma of the extrahepatic bile duct, another is an extramedullary plasmacytoma of the gallbladder, and the others are two non-Hodgkin lymphomas of the extrahepatic bile duct and one of the gallbladder. The clinical presentations, radiographic studies, and gross findings at surgery have not been a significant help in differential diagnosis. Although a preoperative diagnosis of primary hematolymphoid malignancy is very difficult to reach because of the rarity of this disease, it should be considered, because, if an accurate diagnosis is made before surgical intervention, chemotherapy is the most appropriate treatment. In limited cases mimicking cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer, surgical resection followed by chemotherapy has a valid role as reasonable treatment for patients.

“…Schwierigkeit der Differenzialdiagnostik bei Tumoren[9] und die Grenzen der radiologischen Diagnostik[6].Bei einem 66-jährigen Patienten war im Alter von 65 Jahren nach einer pathologischen Fraktur des linken Femurschaftes ein relativ gut differenziertes IgA-Plasmozytom im Stadium III diagnostiziert worden (IgA 2444 mg%). Außer einer lytischen Aufhellung im rechten Humerusschaft und deutlichen degenerativen Veränderungen an der Wirbelsäule hatten sich radiologisch im übrigen Skelett keine Hinweise auf Osteolysen oder Frakturen ergeben.…”

Metastase eines medullären Plasmozytoms als Ursache einer akuten Cholezystitis

Secondary tumours of the gallbladder considered are thought to be rare. Since 1863 only 95 cases have been reported. The case discussed here is only the second one in which the metastatic tumor was a medullary plasmocytoma. But a search for published and confirmed cases indicates that secondary tumors of the gall bladder are not so rare. Metastatic tumors of the gall bladder should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of acute cholecystitis, especially in patients with an advanced primary tumor.
