Plasmocytomes cutanés primitifs multiples

Primary cutaneous plasmacytoma (PCP) is characterized by clonal proliferation of plasma cells in skin. Multiple PCPs are extremely rare and to date have been treated in most cases by chemotherapy, either with or without radiotherapy. The prognosis is poor, with 2-year survival of only 25%. The present case is original, being the only one to our knowledge in which therapeutic abstention was followed by a lack of progression after 4 years of regular follow-up. Consequently, certain indolent forms of PCP do not warrant automatic institution of chemotherapy.
