Abstract
A case of plasmacytoma arising from the hyoid bone is described. this is a distinctly unusual site, as the marrow-containing flat bones are more commonly affected. On a review of the literature this appears to be the first report of plasmacytoma occurring in the hyoid bone. The p atient underwent a CT scan and plain radiographs. Histopathology was d iagnostic.
