LARYNGEAL PLASMACYTOMA IN KAHLERS DISEASE: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Multiple myeloma or Kahlers disease is a malignant hematological disorder due to a monoclonal plasma cell proliferation primarily invading the hematopoietic bone marrow. Extra-medullar involvement occurs in 18% of patients with multiple myeloma. Laryngeal Localization remains rare and has been described in a few cases after a literature review.We report the case of a 44-year-old woman who presented an inspiratory dyspnea caused by a laryngeal tumor. The pathological study and bone marrow examination confirmed the laryngeal localization of multiple myeloma. Treatment consisted of chemotherapy with good clinical outcomes over a 2-year follow-up period.
