Plasma cell neoplasms arise from plasma cells. They are encountered by anatomical pathologists on occasion.

Plasma cell neoplasms
Diagnosis in short

Plasma cell neoplasm. H&E stain
LM dyscohesive plasmacytoid cells (abundant cytoplasm, eccentrically placed nucleus), often prominent perinuclear hof, +/-nucleoli, +/-Russell bodies, +/-Dutcher bodies
LM DDx lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma, poorly differentiated carcinoma, others
IHC CD138 +ve, CD56 +ve, CD45 -ve/+ve, CD79a +ve
Site bone - bone marrow
Associated Dx renal failure, myeloma cast nephropathy
Blood work +/-anemia, +/-hypercalcemia
Radiology +/-lytic bone lesions
Prognosis poor
Clin. DDx metastatic disease

Plasma cell myeloma, and plasmacytoma (solitary myeloma)[1] redirect to this article.

General

  • Malignancy derived from the plasma cells.
  • Prognosis: poor.
  • Common primary bone tumour in adults.

Clinical:[2]

  • Bence Jones protein (urine).
  • Abnormal protein electrophoresis (monoclonal gammopathy, dysproteinemia, paraproteinemia).

Note:

  • Plasmacytoma = histology of multiple myeloma; to diagnose multiple myeloma other (non-pathology) criteria are needed.

Classified by site:

  • Medullary.
  • Extramedullary - usu. upper aerodigestive tract.[3]

Multiple myeloma

Diagnosis requires the following:[4]

  1. Clonal plasma cells. Must >10% if on bone marrow biopsy.
  2. Monoclonal protein, i.e. paraprotein, in serum or urine.
  3. End-organ damage thought to be due to the neoplasm - mnemonic CARL:
    • Calcium (in the serum) is elevated.
    • Anemia.
    • Renal failure.
    • Lytic bone lesions.

Note:

  • CRAB (calclium, renal failure, anemia, bony lesions) is another mnemonic.[5]

Microscopic

Features (plasmacytoma):

  • Abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm.
  • Eccentrically placed nucleus.
    • Usually with "clock face" morphology.
      • "Clock face" morphology = chromatin clumps around the edge of the nucleus, like the numbers on a clock face.
    • May have nucleoli.
  • Russell bodies:
    • Eosinophilic, large (10-15 micrometres), homogenous immunoglobulin-containing inclusions.
  • Dutcher bodies - intranuclear crystalline rods.
    • Dutcher bodies are PAS stain +ve.[6]
  • Prominent perinuclear hof - cytoplasmic crescent shaped lucency adjacent to the nuclear membrane (due to large Golgi apparatus); nucleus has a "bib".

DDx:

Case

  • PCN - low mag.

  • PCN - intermed. mag.

  • PCN - high mag.

  • PCN - very high mag.

Other cases

  • Plasmacytoma. (WC)

  • Skull base plasmacytoma, higher magnification (WC/jensflorian)

  • Plasmacytoma smear (WC/jensflorian)

  • Leptomeningeal plasmacytoma, frozen section (WC/jensflorian)

IHC

Others:[11]

  • CD79a +ve.
  • CD45 -ve/+ve.
  • CD10 -ve.
  • CD5 -ve.
  • Cyclin D1 -ve/+ve.

A panel:

  • CD3, CD20, CD56, CD117, CD138, IG-kappa (plasma), IG-lambda (plasma).

Molecular

  • t(4;14)(p16.3;q32.3) / IGH–MMSET.[12]
    • Associated with poor prognosis.[13]
  • 13q deletion.
    • Worse prognosis.[1]
  • 17q deletion.
    • Worse prognosis.[1]
