Abstract

Extramedullary plasmacytoma involving the parotid gland is a rare occurrence. This report describes a case of solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma arising from the parotid gland of a 60-year-old woman. The importance of thorough follow up for these patients is stressed, as the possibility of multiple myeloma is higher in this group.
