Solitary Extramedullary Plasmacytoma of the Left Lower Eyelid: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

Solitary extramedullary plasmacytoma (SEP) is a collection of plasma cells in soft tissue tumors characterized by monoclonal plasma cells without systemic symptoms or evidence of bone disease. We present a case of SEP in a 49-year-old African American patient who presented with a slowly enlarging eyelid mass and underwent an excisional biopsy with ophthalmology before the diagnosis was confirmed by pathology in the absence of systemic symptoms or bone disease. Our review found only six confirmed cases of SEP of the eyelid described in the literature. In such cases, treatment is typically surgical excision or radiotherapy. Our patient was treated with radiation after the excision was incomplete. This case report adds another rare case of SEP of the eyelid to the literature.
