Waldenström macroglobulinemia-associated renal AL amyloidosis: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Following multidisciplinary consultation, the patient was treated with the bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) regimen. Second, for WM patients with renal AL amyloidosis, choosing BR regimen as the first-line treatment is reasonable. However, during the treatment process, it is essential to closely monitor and actively prevent the adverse effects of this regimen, particularly severe infections which may have fatal consequences.

Other targeted approaches, including BCL2 and proteasome inhibition, offer additional options for personalized therapy. Ongoing integration of molecular and microenvironmental data is expected to enhance risk stratification and support the development of more effective, tailored treatment strategies.

Waldenström Macroglobulinemia Presenting With Hepatic Lesions: Case Report and Literature Review. (PubMed, Case Rep Hematol)
The patient received six cycles of bendamustine and rituximab (BR), leading to a reduction in hepatic lesions and IgM levels, though treatment was complicated by persistent cytopenias. Comprehensive histopathological and molecular evaluation is critical for accurate diagnosis and appropriate therapy. Our report expands the spectrum of extramedullary WM and highlights the potential for favorable response to BR despite unusual presentation.

Smoldering Waldenström macroglobulinemia coexisting with myelodysplastic syndrome: a rare case report and literature review. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
After six cycles of azacitidine, she achieved remission of MDS but rapidly progressed to AML and ultimately died. This case provides a key clinical lesson: persistent cytopenias during ibrutinib therapy were attributable to MDS progression rather than SWM, underscoring the importance of re-evaluation. Furthermore, it completely documents clonal evolution from 2.5% blasts (MDS with low blasts) to 6% blasts (MDS with increased blasts-1) and ultimately to AML (66% blasts), and it introduces the emergence of an FLT3-ITD mutation that rapidly drove the disease into AML even after the patient had achieved MDS remission. We also review the rare coexistence of WM and MDS/AML, and MGUS with MDS.
