  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Plasma cell granuloma occurs most frequently in the lung and upper respiratory tract; fewer than ten cases have been reported to occur in the central nervous sys-tem. A case of intracranial plasma cell granuloma in a 69-year-old male was reported. He visited our clinic, complaining of progressive visual disturbance. The CT in this patient showed a suprasellar mass, diagnosed as a tuberculum sellae meningioma. Over a 10-year observation period the tumor grew remarkably and, when finally removed, it proved to be a plasma cell gra-nulonia. This report presents CT scans and MR images and a review of the literature relevant to this rare in-tracranial lesion. The most common preoperative dia-gnosis in these cases, as reported here, was menin-gioma. Although plasma cell granuloma rarely occurs in-tracranially, the existence of this entity should be borne in mind in the differential diagnosis of meningioma.
