  • Title: [Extramedullary plasmacytoma--manifestation in petrous bone].
    Author: Dazert S, Baier G, Aletsee C, Hagen R.
    Journal: Laryngorhinootologie; 1997 Sep; 76(9):559-61. PubMed ID: 9417186.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Extramedullary plasmocytoma of the temporal bone is a rare neoplastic disorder. Only a very few cases are described in the world literature. CASE: We report on a patient who presented with the clinical signs of a glomus jugular tumor. Postoperative histological evaluation revealed an extramedullary plasmocytoma of the temporal bone. CONCLUSION: If a glomus tumor is suspected, histological investigation appears necessary if surgery is not possible or is contraindicated.
