Abstract：
:The incidence of sudden death caused by undiagnosed primary intracranial neoplasm in young adults is extremely low. The aim of the work is to present a case report of the sudden death of a 24-year-old woman. The autopsy has revealed enlargement of sella turcica with an intrasellar tumorous mass extending into the adjacent basal parts of the brain. A tumour was diagnosed as an extramedullary plasmacytoma. The cause of death was established as a failure of the central nervous system. Toxicological analyses of biological materials were negative. According to the case history, a woman reportedly had no serious health problems. Finding of an extensive intracranial tumour in the sella turcica was random and surprising. The presented case is an extremely rare case of sudden death caused by intracranial intrasellar extramedullary plasmacytoma without previous clinical manifestation.
