title: Intriguing Morphology of IgG/Lambda Secreting Myeloma Cells.
abstract: Myeloma cells are known to show varied morphology and various types of nuclear or cytoplasmic inclusions. There are a few reports of myeloma with presence of pseudo-Gaucher type histiocytes; however myeloma cells itself resembling storage histiocytes is distinctly uncommon. We report images of plasma cells resembling storage cells from a case of IgG/lambda plasma cell myeloma. Hematopathologist must be aware of such varied morphology of plasma cells especially while dealing with extra medullary plasmacytomas.
