We report a plasma cell granuloma arising in the movable mucosa of the oral cavity of a 50-year-old man. Histologically, the lesion was characterized by a dense nodular infiltrate of mature plasma cells. Immunostaining for kappa and lambda light chains confirmed a polyclonal plasma cell population. Elongated rete ridges of the overlying epithelium formed collarettes around dilated blood and lymph vessels in focal areas. Based on the overall histologic architecture, we hypothesize that these peculiar changes are secondary to local blood flow alteration with congestive vasodilation caused by a dense plasma cell infiltrate. We believe that the plasma cell population may represent the oral counterpart of the cutaneous angioplasmocellular hyperplasia.
