Overview

The diagnosis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia is based on bone marrow biopsy and serum protein analysis.

Diagnostic study of choice

Diagnostic study of choice

There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM), but WM can be diagnosed based on a bone marrow biopsy and monoclonal protein studies.[1][2]

Diagnostic results

The following findings on performing bone marrow biopsy and serum protein analysis are confirmatory of Waldenström macroglobulinemia:[1]

  • Presence of IgM monoclonal gammopathy on serum protein analysis (IgM can be of any size)
  • A bone marrow biopsy demonstrating more than 10% infiltration by small lymphocytes with an intertrabecular pattern consistent with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma
  • Immunophenotype of the lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate consistent with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. This includes: IgM+, CD5-, CD10-, CD11c-, CD19+, CD20+, CD22+, CD23-, CD25+, CD27+, FMC7+, CD103-
  • Point mutation in the MYD88 gene (the L265P mutation)
