title: Bilateral plasmacytoma of the breast: a case report.
abstract: Plasmacytoma of the breast is a rare condition that may occur as a solitary finding or in association with multiple myeloma. Of the cases of plasmacytoma of the breast that have been described, nearly half have been bilateral. We report a case of bilateral plasmacytoma of the breast detected on a routine screening mammogram in a patient with a recent diagnosis of multiple myeloma.
