Overview

Waldenström macroglobulinemia is an uncontrolled clonal proliferation of terminally differentiated B lymphocytes (plasma cells), which are normally involved in humoral immunity. Genes involved in the pathogenesis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia include MYD88-L265P, and CXCR4.

Associated Conditions

Several studies showed an increased incidence of following second cancers in patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia:[17]

Microscopic Pathology

WM/LPL is a form of an indolent (slowly growing) non-hodgkin lymphoma. LPL is called so because the lymphoma cells have the characteristics of both lymphocytes and plasma cells. After a detailed clinicopathological assessment and review of the published literature, the following diagnostic criteria was proposed for WM:[19]

  • IgM monoclonal gammopathy of any concentration.
  • Bone marrow infiltration by small lymphocytes, plasmacytoid cells and plasma cells in following patterns:[20]
    • Diffuse.
    • Interstitial.
    • Nodular.
    • Paratrabecular.
  • Following lymphoid organs are involved in WM:
    • Bone marrow.
    • Lymph nodes.
    • Spleen.
  • The bone marrow contains variable numbers of pleomorphic lymphoid cells.
  • Dutcher bodies may be seen as intracytoplasmic inclusions positive for periodic acid Schiff.
  • Mast cell hyperplasia is common and may stimulate tumor cell proliferation and monoclonal IgM secretion.
  • Gene expression profiling has indicated that lymphoid cells of WM more closely resemble those of chronic lymphocytic leukemia than those of myeloma.[21]

Immunohistochemistry

Malignant cells in Waldenström macroglobulinemia have following immunophenotypic characteristics:[3]
