Abstract
Two cases of localized thyroid plasmacytoma are described and the literature is reviewed. In most cases the tumors arise in thyroid glands with lymphocytic thyroiditis. Thyroidectomy with regional lymph node biopsy seems to be the initial treatment of choice. Postoperative irradiation appears to be indicated in cases with residual thyroid tissue remaining and in those with documented regional nodal involvement.Entities:
