[Mediofacial degloving in extramedullary plasmacytoma with orbital invasion].

Extramedullary solitary plasmacytoma is a rare plasmatic cell tumor occurring in the head and neck. We report the case of a patient with a mass that arose from the sphenoidal base, extended toward the right paranasal sinuses, and invaded the orbit. The clinical characteristics, diagnostic criteria, and therapeutic problems are discussed and reviewed in the literature, with special attention to an alternative therapeutic approach, midfacial degloving.
