Abstract
Extramedullary plasmacytomas are malignant proliferations of plasma cells outside the skeletal tissue. They
commonly involve upper respiratory tract and oral cavity. Extramedullary plasmacytomas involving the breast are very
uncommon. Here we present a report of extramedullary plasmacytoma of breast in a 53 year old multiple myeloma
patient. FNAC and trucut biopsy helped in accurately diagnosing as plasmacytoma of breast.
