Abstract EN

Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the thyroid gland is an uncommon condition.

Up to date, its clinical pathological features are not fully understood.

We present a case of an extramedullary nonmucosal plasmacytoma of the thyroid gland which is the first case with regional metastatic lymph nodes.

This condition requires a scrupulous survey to rule out a metastatic multiple myeloma.

Although localized forms management is still controversial, authors require combined approach for regional metastatic forms.

The prognosis is favorable compared to solitary bone plasmacytomas or multiple myeloma.
