Abstract EN
Surgically, solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) of the craniocervical junction (CCJ) is typically treated with cement augmentation and occipital-cervical stabilization (OCS).
In the orthopedic spine literature, various surgical treatment options have been described for SBP, but only a few studies exist describing SBP of the CCJ with treatment involving cement augmentation alone.
We report the case of an 83-year-old female found to have C2 SBP that was successfully treated with curettage and cement augmentation alone.
