[[Waldenström macroglobulinemia]] was first discovered by Jan G. Waldenström, a Swedish [[physician]] in 1944. [[Bing-Neel syndrome]], a late and [[rare]] [[complication]] of [[Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma|Waldenström macroglobulinemia]], was first discovered in 1936 by Jens Bing and Axel Valdemar Neel.

Overview

Waldenström macroglobulinemia was first discovered by Jan G. Waldenström, a Swedish physician in 1944. Bing-Neel syndrome, a late and rare complication of Waldenström macroglobulinemia, was first discovered in 1936 by Jens Bing and Axel Valdemar Neel. First report on familial aggregation of Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia was published in 1962. In 1944, Revised European-American classification of lymphoid neoplasms (REAL) and WHO in 2001, placed Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia in the category of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma. A diagnostic criteria for Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia was proposed by a consensus group at the Second International Workshop in Athens, Greece in 2002. A report published in 2013 showed that a patient of Bing-Neel syndrome who discontinued the treatment in 2009 remained asymptomatic.
