MULTIPLE PLASMA-CELL GRANULOMAS OF THE CENTRAL-NERVOUS-SYSTEM - CASE-REPORT

PLASMA CELL GRANULOMAS of the central nervous system are exceedingly r are. Of the six well-documented cases that have been published to date , five plasma cell granulomas were intracranial and one was located in the spinal meninges. Multiple plasma cell granulomas of the central n ervous system have not previously been reported. We now report a patie nt who had two plasma cell granulomas in the spinal meninges and one i n the anterior cerebral fair. The histological findings that different iate this rare lesion from other central nervous system lesions, such as plasmacytoma and meningioma, are discussed with a review of the lit erature.
