- Abstract
- Plasma cell Granuloma (PCG) is a form of idiopathic inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT). It is a rare entity character-ized
by a nonneoplastic proliferation of inflammatory cells dominated by a polyclonal expansion of the plasma cells.
This lesion has been discovered in many parts of the body including the central nervous system. We now report two
cases of plasma cell granuloma involving the brain. The first case was a 42-year-old man who presented a right hemi-paresis.
He had a lesion in the convexity of the left parietal region. The second case was a 58-year-old woman who was
expressed confusion and a frontal-temporal headache. She had a lesion in the convexity of the left temporal region and
mastoid bone. The diagnosis of PCG was confirmed by pathological and immunohistochemical studies revealing pre-dominant
plasma cells in the affected tissues. 두개내에 발생한 형질세포육아종
