Synchronous Presentation of a Primary Iliac Lymph Node Plasmacytoma and a Prostate Adenocarcinoma

Synchronous presentation of primary nodal plasmacytoma and prostate cancer is very rare and has not been described in the literature. Here, we report a case of a patient with nodal plasmacytoma whose clinical presentation was suggestive of metastatic prostate cancer in the setting of recently diagno...
