Waldenström's macroglobulinemia must be differentiated from other B cell lymphoid neoplasms including:
- Always express CD5, usually CD23 positive[1]
- Express bright surface IgM, CD20 and other B-cell antigens (CD19, CD22, CD79a, FMC7)[1]
- Express CD138, CD38, CD79a, and VS38c and CD56(70%)[1]
- Presence of Plasmacytic cell infiltration of bone marrow, osteolytic lesions and renal insufficiency[2]
- Translocation involving chromosome 11 (t 11;14)
- Marginal zone lymphoma:
