Simultaneous Presentation of Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia and MYD88 Gene Mutation with Multiple Myeloma

Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) and multiple myeloma (MM) are two distinct forms of mature hematologic B-cell malignancies. A missense somatic mutation in MYD88 gene (MYD88L265P) has been found in hematologic B-cell malignancies. The simultaneous presentation of Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and MYD88 mutation with multiple myeloma in the same patient is very rare and only a few cases have been reported in the literature.
