Presentation
Chemotherapy presents varying results, with few studies and unfavorable results alone. [archbronconeumol.org]
A large pulmonary plasma-cell granuloma (PCG) mimicking a mediastinal germinal-cell tumor in a 9-year-old boy is presented. The nonspecificity of the tumoral calcifications and of the radiographic and CT findings in pulmonary PCG is demonstrated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Mitotic figures may be present. No abnormal mitotic figures are present. Complete surgical excision is the treatment of choice and should be performed as early as possible. [histopathology-india.net]
Squamous cell carcinomas often present with hemoptysis within 4 to 6 months of symptom onset, due to mucosal irritation and ulceration. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Treatment
As middle-dosage corticosteroid therapy is not cytotoxic, it is useful for the treatment of pulmonary plasma cell granuloma, especially in multifocal, unresectable, and/or relapsing cases. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Complications, such as fluid in the lungs or a partial lung collapse, are known to occur occasionally The mainstay of treatment is a surgical excision that can be curative. [dovemed.com]
With antibiotic treatment and respiratory physiotherapy, the patient improved. [archbronconeumol.org]
The patient's treatment course consisted of three craniotomies, 3,600‑cGy fractionated radiation and two courses of glucocorticoid therapy. [spandidos-publications.com]
Some cases may show spontaneous resolution without any treatment (5). [ispub.com]
Prognosis

The long-term prognosis is unpredictable, and late and fatal recurrences are possible. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In addition, early diagnosis benefits patients as the prognosis worsens with the progression of symptoms. [archbronconeumol.org]
Prognosis Complete excision is commonly curative 5. Recurrences 7 and metastases are rare. [e-immunohistochemistry.info]
Plasma cell granuloma is a rare benign lesion but its exact etiology, behavior and prognosis is still controversial. [jicdro.org]
Etiology
The etiology of these ‘tumors’ is not certain and often difficult to ascertain. [humpath.com]
It is important to distinguish the different etiologies because treatment varies widely, from observation for granulomas or hamartomas to surgery for malignancies like carcinoid tumor and solitary metastasis. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Abstract Inflammatory pseudotumors are a relatively uncommon pathology of uncertain etiology, generally considered to be reactive in origin. They may be observed in different locations as single or multiple masses. [archbronconeumol.org]
Plasma cell granuloma is a rare benign lesion but its exact etiology, behavior and prognosis is still controversial. [jicdro.org]
Nonmalignant conditions to consider depending on the clinical presentation include infectious etiologies, infl ammatory noninfectious etiologies (Wegener granulomatosis), vascular lesions, and congenital abnormalities. [es.slideshare.net]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology Approximately 140 cases have been reported worldwide, with a higher prevalence for male adults of Asian origin and subjects affected by systemic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. [orpha.net]
