ABSTRACT
Los plasmocitomas extramedulares son neoplasias malignas de células plasmáticas con origen en los tejidos blandos. El plasmocitoma pulmonar primario es la forma más rara de plasmocitoma extramedular. Los hallazgos radiológicos son inespecíficos y el diagnóstico es histológico. La tomografía computarizada (TC) torácica es útil para confirmar su localización y planificar la cirugía.Se presenta un caso de plasmocitoma endobronquial primario en un paciente adulto, cuyo diagnóstico se realizó por anatomía patológica. Se describen los hallazgos en la radiografía de tórax y en la TC y se analiza la utilidad de las reconstrucciones tridimensionales para planificar la cirugía (AU)
Extramedullary plasmacytomas are malignant neoplasms of the plasmatic cells of the soft tissues. Primary pulmonary plasmacytoma is the rarest type of extramedullary plasmacytoma. The radiologic findings are unspecific and the diagnosis is histologic. Chest CT is useful for confirming its location and planning surgery.We present a case of primary endobronchial plasmacytoma in an adult diagnosed at histology. We describe the findings at plain-film chest X-ray and at CT, and we analyze the usefulness of 3D reconstructions for planning surgery (AU)

The normal stimulatory response that the TRH has on the TSH in children, is inhibited by the previous administration of bromocryptine (p less than 0.05). Under the same circumstances there was a significant increase in the release of the GH.
