Cancer Category / Type

Low-grade mature B-cell neoplasm[1][2]

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Non-Hodgkin small B-cell lymphoma[1][3]

Definition / Description of Disease

  • Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) is a neoplasm of small B lymphocytes, plasmacytoid lymphocytes, and plasma cells, usually involving bone marrow and spleen, which does not fulfil the criteria for any of the other small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms, that can have plasmacytic differentiation. [1]
  • Based on the presence of the bone marrow involvement and the presence of paraprotein, LPL is categorized into Waldenström macroglobulinemia and LPL of non-Waldenström macroglobulinemia. [4]
  • The majority of cases of LPL lymphoma are associated with IgM paraprotein secretion (Waldenström macroglobulinemia), with less than 5% of cases attributed to IgA, IgG, and nonsecreting cases of LPL. [5]

Synonyms / Terminology

Malignant lymphoma, lymphoplasmacytoid lymphoma.[1]

Epidemiology / Prevalence

  • Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma, in approximately 95% of cases, occurs in patients of Caucasian descent. [4]
  • The median age is in the seventh decade of life. [1][4]
  • Approximately 1000-1500 new cases are diagnosed yearly in the United States.
  • LPL associated with IgM (Waldenström macroglobulinemia) is more commonly occurs in male patients, while LPL with a non-IgM is reported more frequently in females. [2]

Clinical Features

Signs and Symptoms Weakness (usually related to anemia)

Fatigue

Hyperviscosity (in 30% of cases)

Lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly (in 10-20% of patient at time of diagnosis)

Paraprotein deposition in tissues with organ-specific dysfunction:

  • Neuropathy (minority of patients; may be related to the IgM paraprotein with myelin sheath antigens)
  • Diarrhea (rare, due to paraprotein deposition in gastrointestinal tract)
  • Coagulopathy (may be cause by IgM binding to clotting factors)
  • Bullae or papules in the skin
  • Proteinuria and renal failure
Laboratory Findings IgM paraprotein

IgM and IgG paraprotein (minority of patients)

Cold agglutinins

Cryoglobulinemia

Sites of Involvement

  • Bone marrow (most of cases), lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and other extranodal sites. The peripheral blood may also be involved.
  • Rare involvement of CNS associated with Waldenström macroglobulinemia (known as Bing-Neel syndrome). Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma may occur at sites typically involved by extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) of mucosal-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma), such as the ocular adnexa. [1][4]
  • Patients with non-IgM LPL are more likely to present with extramedullary involvement such as lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, or extranodal disease. [2]
  • Bone marrow involvement is more common in patients with IgM-associated LPL (Waldenström macroglobulinemia) when compared to non-IgM LPL. [2]

Morphologic Features

  • Bone marrow involvement is characterized by diffuse, interstitial, and nodular infiltration patterns. Paratrabecular can also be present; however, it has been observed more frequently in cases of marginal zone lymphoma.
  • The infiltrate is characterized by small monotonous lymphocytes admixed with a variable amount of plasmacytoid lymphocytes and plasma cells. Although nonspecific, variable amount of reactive mast cell and hemosiderin deposits are frequently observed. Dutcher bodies (nuclear vacuoles containing IgM protein) and Russell bodies (cytoplasmic inclusion) are often seen similarly in multiple myeloma cases. [1]
  • Peripheral blood often demonstrates lymphoma cells with similar morphology. Leukocytosis is not typically observed. Peripheral blood may also demonstrate a rouleaux formation due to increased IgM paraprotein.

MYD88 L265; Activating mutation >90% Yes Yes Yes This is also seen in some non-germinal centre subtype DLBCL, NOS, primary cutaneous DLBCL, leg type, and primary CNS and testicular DLBCL cases.


Cases lacking MYDBB L265P mutation are reported to have an adverse prognosis and a lower response to ibrutinib.

CXCR4 S338X or or frameshift mutations 30% Yes Yes Cases with nonsense mutations, has been associated with more symptomatic/active disease, other clinical and laboratory findings, and greater resistance to ibrutinib and possibly other therapeutic agents.


Mutations are similar to those seen in the syndrome of warts, hypogammaglobulinaemia, immunodeficiency, and myelokathexis (WHIM syndrome).


Mutations in this gene are also present in a very small proportion of other small B-cell lymphomas.

ARID1A 17%

Less commonly, other somatic mutations, such as mutations of TP53, CD79B, KMT20 (previously designated MLL2), and MYBBP1A
