A Case of Relapsed Multiple Myeloma Presented as lntracranial Extramedullary Plasmacytoma
Intracranial plasmacytoma presented by extramedullary involvement of multiple myeloma is rarely reported. Neurologic complications by intracranial extramedullary
plasmacytomas are cranial nerve palsy, visual disturbance, vertigo, nystagmus, headache, paralysis, mental change and etc.
We experienced a case of relapsed multiple myeloma presented as intracranial extramedullary plasmacytoma. Brain magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) disclosed a large
soft tissue mass involving the sphenoidal sinus and cavernous sinus which invaded optic chiasma, occulomotor nerve and pituitary gland. Relapsed multiple myeloma with
intracranial extramedullary plasmacytoma was confined by trans-sphenoidal biopsy and urine electrophoresis. Neurologic complications of the patient was improved after cranial radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy.

Abstract
Intracranial plasmacytoma presented by extramedullary involvement of multiple myeloma is rarely reported. Neurologic complications by intracranial extramedullary
plasmacytomas are cranial nerve palsy, visual disturbance, vertigo, nystagmus, headache, paralysis, mental change and etc.
We experienced a case of relapsed multiple myeloma presented as intracranial extramedullary plasmacytoma. Brain magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) disclosed a large
soft tissue mass involving the sphenoidal sinus and cavernous sinus which invaded optic chiasma, occulomotor nerve and pituitary gland. Relapsed multiple myeloma with
intracranial extramedullary plasmacytoma was confined by trans-sphenoidal biopsy and urine electrophoresis. Neurologic complications of the patient was improved after cranial radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy.
