Overview

Waldenström macroglobulinemia must be differentiated from multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, b-cell prolymphocytic leukemia, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and marginal zone lymphoma.

Differentiating Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma from other Diseases

Waldenström macroglobulinemia must be differentiated from other B cell lymphoid neoplasms including:

  • Always express CD5
  • Usually CD23 positive[1]
  • Express CD10, HLA-DR, pan B-cell antigens (CD19, CD20, CD79a), CD21, and surface IgM, IgG, or IgA
  • Rearrangement of Bcl-2[4][5]
  • Express CD138, CD38, CD79a, VS38c and CD56 (70%)
  • Presence of plasmacytic cell infiltration of bone marrow, osteolytic lesions, and renal insufficiency
  • Translocation involving chromosome 11 (t11;14)[6]
  • Expresses CD5+ and CD23+
  • Expresses surface IgM, IgD, and cyclin D1 in majority of cases
  • Infiltration of bone marrow by monomorphous small lymphoid cells with irregular nuclei[7][8]
  • Expresses B cell markers CD19, CD20, and CD22
  • Infiltrates the bone marrow with a characteristic intertrabecular and intrasinusoidal pattern
  • Most common cytogenetic abnormalities are loss of 7q (19%) along with +3q (19%) and +5q (10% )[9][10]
