“…In addition, JL represent a wide spectrum of diseases/alterations, and epidemiological studies simultaneously evaluating all of these lesions are uncommon. In general, the data are presented according to the following groups: odontogenic cysts and tumors 3,8,9,10 , fibro-osseous lesions 11,12,13 , malignant tumors 14,15,16,17 , and osteonecrosis 18 . The present study was prospectively designed with the purpose of determining the prevalence of these types of lesions.…”

Abstract:The study was carried out in a Brazilian population and the aim was to describe the prevalence and the clinic-radiographical features of jaw lesions. In addition, a comparison between the main diagnosis hypothesis and final diagnosis was accessed. A prospective study which evaluated all patients with jaw lesions diagnosed in an Oral Diagnosis Center, between August 2013 and October 2014. A total of 450 patients were observed for the first time, and 130 had some type of jaw lesion. The mean age of the patients was 35.2 years ± 17.86. Among these, 71 were women (54.62%) and 87 were Caucasian (66.92%). The mandible was affected more frequently (71.43%) than the maxilla (28.57%). Swelling and pain were the most frequent clinical signs and symptoms and were observed in 60 (42.85%) and 38 (27.14%) cases, respectively. The panoramic x-ray was the main radiographic exam utilized (88.57%). Radiolucent lesions accounted for 89 cases (63.57%) and the unilocular form was present in 114 cases (81.43%). A total of 93 cases had histopathological analyses and the periapical cyst was the most frequent lesion. In the other 47 lesions, the diagnosis was conducted by clinical and radiographic management. Bone lesions were frequent, being noted on first visit in approximately 30% of patients; in 1/3 of the cases, the diagnoses were completed with a combination of clinical and radiographic exams.

“…The rate of incidence of plasmacytoma on the mandible has been reported as 4.4%. They are most frequently seen in the posterior and ramus of the mandible, which are bone marrow-rich regions 7. Pisano et al 8 reported that, in 9 of 13 cases, lesions were on the posterior part of the premolars and in only one case was the lesion in the anterior region.…”

Solitary plasmacytoma of the mandible: report of two cases

et al. 2016

Plasma cell neoplasms (plasmacytoma) are discrete, solitary masses of lymphoid neoplastic proliferations of B cells. Plasmacytomas comprise three groups: multiple myeloma, solitary plasmacytoma (SP) and extramedullary plasmacytoma. SP originates as a clone of transformed malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow. SP of the jaw is a rare condition; therefore diagnosis is quite difficult and often results in misdiagnosis. MM is a lymphoproliferative disease the prognosis of which is worse than SP. SP can progress to MM in a few months to years after diagnosis. In this regard, early diagnosis of the disease is of utmost importance. This article presents two cases of SP diagnosed in the mandible and documented with clinical, radiographic and histological findings.

“…Extramedullary plasmacytoma arising from the maxillary sinus with metastasis is extremely rare. 1,5,6 Local clinical signs and symptoms are bone swelling, localized pain in the jaws and teeth, numbness, anesthesia, bleeding, tooth mobility and possible bone fracture. Very rarely, it may mimic an abscess.…”

Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is defined as neoplastic proliferation of plasma cells in the soft tissue. It represents approximately 3% of all plasma cell neoplasms. EMP of the head and neck are very uncommon tumors, representing approximately 0.4% of all head and neck malignancies; amongst them, plasmacytoma of the maxilla is extremely rare. We present a rare case of EMP which had metastasized to multiple cervical lymph nodes and was associated with aspergillosis. The possibility of extramedullary plasmacytoma should be considered when an elderly patient presents with symptoms of recurrent rhinosinusitis not responding to conservative management and imaging shows a destructive soft tissue mass.
