Plasmacytoma of dens as a cause of atlanto-axial instability.

V S Prasad1, B S Raju, C Sundaram.   

Abstract

A case of Plasmacytoma of dens (Odontoid Process) in an adult male managed by trans-oral excision and posterior fusion is reported for its rarity. The importance of neuro-imaging and the treatment options, in view of the associated instability at the atlanto-axial region and the difficulty in preoperative diagnosis are emphasized.
