Abstract
We report the case of a 39-year-old man who consulted for severe exophthalmia with diplopia associated with chronic sinusitis evolving over 6 months. A cervicofacial CT scan showed a tumoral mass invading the maxillary and ethmoidal left sinus and orbital cavity. A biopsy of the mass and general evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of extramedullary plasmocytoma. Secondarily it transformed into multiple myeloma. In light of this case of extramedullary plasmocytoma in a young subject, we discuss the clinical characteristics, ophthalmologic manifestations, and the various therapeutic modalities according to the stage of the disease and the ocular repercussions.
