# Orbital Plasmacytoma in an Elderly Patient With Multiple Myeloma

## TL;DR

This case report describes an elderly patient with multiple myeloma and rare orbital plasmacytomas, emphasizing the role of imaging in diagnosis and treatment.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in presenting a rare case of bilateral orbital plasmacytoma in a patient with a history of multiple myeloma.

## Key findings

- Orbital plasmacytomas can occur in patients with a prior diagnosis of multiple myeloma.
- Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of orbital plasmacytomas.

## Abstract

Orbital plasmacytomas are exceedingly rare neoplasms characterized by the proliferation of monoclonal plasma cells in the orbital soft tissues. Their presentation and clinical course can be diverse, making early diagnosis and management challenging. This case report sheds light on one such instance, emphasizing the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this uncommon condition. We present an 81-year-old patient with a prior diagnosis of multiple myeloma and bilateral orbital plasmacytomas, highlighting the importance of imaging in diagnosis and management.
