[Solitary plasmocytoma of the mandible].
The authors present a case of solitary bony plasmocytoma of the mandibule, with local amyloid deposition. Diagnosis was made at extemporaneous pathological examination, then confirmed by the examination of the fixed surgical sample. Immunoenzymologically the proliferation proved to be monoclonal, with secretion of kappa light chain. The patient was treated by surgical curettage and homologous cancelous bone filling, followed by 5,500 rads of electrontherapy. He was then regularly controlled during 8 years and remained free from local recurrence. All investigations in search of dissemination (Kahler disease) remained negative.
