Orbital plasma cell tumours

This paper reports two cases of orbital plasma cell tumors, one initially presenting as a localized lesion, but later developing dissemination and proving fatal within 7 months; the other presenting initially as a disseminated disease and apparently cured from that particular disease within 1 year, both on equivalent treatments. The importance of investigations for general disease (for therapeutic reasons) is emphasized as well as the possibility of renal involvement and the unpredictability of the clinical course.
