MYD88‐mutated Lymphoplasmacytic Lymphoma With Monoclonal Immunoglobulin G: A Case Report

ABSTRACT Lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas (LPL) are usually associated with serum monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM). Nevertheless, in some cases, these cells may secrete IgA or IgG monoclonal proteins or remain non‐secretory. We report a case from a patient with LPL‐secreting IgG who developed anaemia an...

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Lymphoplasmacytic lymphomas (LPL) are usually associated with serum monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM). Nevertheless, in some cases, these cells may secrete IgA or IgG monoclonal proteins or remain non‐secretory. We report a case from a patient with LPL‐secreting IgG who developed anaemia and splenomegaly during the disease course that necessitated treatment with bortezomib, dexamethasone, and rituximab. The case illustrates the need for clinicians and pathologists to consider LPLs as a differential diagnosis also without a serum monoclonal IgM. Clinical Trial Registration: The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.
