Abstract
Plasma cell neoplasms rarely manifest as a solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma. Oropharyngeal involvement had been already reported in the literature. The most common malignancy of the oropharynx is squamous cell carcinoma, while soft tissue malignancy is extremely rare. In our present case report, the patient presented with a huge oropharyngeal mass which developed in a short duration. His family's concerns were mostly about his survival and quality of life. After complete checkup, a diagnosis for solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma of the oropharynx was concluded. The patient received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The mass markedly decreased in size with complete regression as seen both clinically and radiologically. Our main aim for reporting this present case of pathology in oropharyngeal malignant masses is to increase the awareness and draw attention of Otolaryngology, the Head and Neck surgeons.
