| Abstract: | A case of plasma cell granuloma of the tongue in an otherwise symptomless 48-year-old caucasian female is reported. The polyclonal nature of the plasmocytes was revealed by immunostaining of kappa and lambda light chains. Electron microscopic observations showed typical mature plasmocytes. A parasitic etiology of this type of lesion is suggested. |
