dc.titleSolitary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the maxillary sinus. Case reporten
heal.abstractSolitary extramedullary plasmacytomas are rare tumors that often affect head and neck region. Because of the non-specific associated symptomatology, they frequently are misdiagnosed. We briefly describe a 69-year-old woman who developed solitary plasmacytoma in the left maxillary sinus and was initially treated as having sinusitis. We also report the diagnostic work-up that is necessary to establish a correct diagnosis in such cases. This case highlights that an appropriate investigation for neoplastic disease should be performed in patients presenting with persistent symptoms that resemble those of sinusitis, especially if these do not resolve after conservative medical treatment.en
