Description Extramedullary disease in multiple myeloma (MM) is uncommon and associated with a poorer prognosis. Extramedullary disease involving the orbit is even more unusual, with optic nerve involvement being rare. However, it can be the initial presentation of disease or disease recurrence. Here, we describe an optic nerve head plasmacytoma in the setting of systemic relapsed, refractory IgA kappa multiple myeloma.
