Primary cutaneous extramedullary plasmacytoma secreting lamba IgG

Abstract
An adult male was described, who developed a tumour on his left arm, which was diagnosed as a primary cutaneous extramedullary plasmacytoma after histopathological, electron microscopic and immunocytochemical studies. Further studies ruled out the presence of multiple myeloma, extramedullary plasmacytoma of another site, or paraproteinaemia/paraproteinuria. During a relapse of the tumour 21/2 years after initial treatment, a new immunocytochemical study demonstrated that the tumour cells expressed monoclonal λ IgG at the intra‐cytoplasmic level, an unusual finding.
