Extramedullary plasmacytoma has the potential to transform into multiple myeloma and mandates strict vigilance and routine follow-up. We describe such a case in a 29-year-old pregnant woman who presented with progressive hoarseness, dysphagia and intermittent respiratory difficulty. Fiberoptic laryngoscopy revealed a fleshy mass involving the posterior third of the true vocal cords, encroaching on the ventricle and false cords. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry revealed extramedullary plasmacytoma of a monoclonal nature.
