Extramedullary plasmacytoma(EMP)is a malignant neoplasm characterized by monoclonal plasma cell proliferation originating outside the bone marrow and hematopoietic tissues.The co-occurrence of multiple myeloma(MM)with mammary EMP is clinically rare.This case report describes the diagnostic and therapeutic management of a middle-aged female patient with MM and mammary EMP,accompanied by a litera-ture review.The patient presented with persistent fever and was found to have a right breast mass via PET/CT during routine follow-up for MM.The lesion was biopsy-confirmed as mammary EMP,and the patient subse-quently underwent chemotherapy.This case highlights the critical importance of differential diagnosis between breast cancer and rare hematologic metastatic tumors in early prevention of disease progression.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of blood purification therapy in the treatment of diuretic resistance in patients with nephrotic edema.Methods 40 cases of primary nephrotic syndrome with diuretic resistance in our hospital were randomly divided into hemodialysis (HD) group and continuous blood purification (CVVH) group and each group were 20 cases.All the patients were given basic treatment (lipid modulation,anticoagulation and glucocorticoid) and the observation time was 4 weeks.The changes of biochemical indexes (24 h urine protein,plasma albumin,serum urea nitrogen and serum creatinine) were observed before and after treatment in two groups.In addition,the complications of four groups were recorded.Results After blood purification treatment,urinary volume of two groups were significantly increased,the quantity of 24 h urinary protein and serum albumin were significantly improved,levels of serum urea nitrogen and serum creatinine were significantly decreased.The differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01).Compared with HD group,the urine volume increased more obviously in CVYH group after 2 weeks' treatment (P < 0.05).The same time,24 h urinary protein was reduced and plasma albumin was improved more significantly (P < 0.05),levcls of serum urea nitrogen and serum creatinine were not differ between the two groups (P > 0.05).There was no difference in urine volume and renal function between the two groups (P > 0.05) after 4 weeks' treatment.24 h urinary protein was significantly decreased and serum albumin was significantly higher than HD group (P < 0.05).There were no serious complications in the two groups.Conclusion Blood purification in the treatment of diuretic resistance in patients with nephrotic edema is safe and effective.Continuous blood purification treatment can effectively alleviate nephrotic edema with diuretic resistance,promote the recovcry of renal function and improve the prognosis of kidney disease.
