Abstract
Clinical management of Waldenström’s Macroglobulinemia has seen major progress in the recent years, triggered by our improved understanding of the biology of the disease and the development of new therapies. Based on this there are multiple treatment options available for patients with WM ranging from classical immunochemotherapy to targeted approaches blocking key enzymes involved in lymphoma growth. This review summarizes our current knowledge about diagnostics and treatment of this rare but recurrent lymphoma subtype, which often presents a major clinical challenge in daily clinical life.
