ABSTRACT

Lymphoma-related amyloidosis is a rare entity. Systemic AL amyloidosis is generally caused by an underlying plasma cell clone in the bone marrow with an intact monoclonal immunoglobulin G (IgG) or IgA protein. The rarity of the lymphoma-related amyloidosis makes the generation of data in randomized trials and the determination of the optimal treatment almost impossible. Therefore, treatment recommendations discussed here are based on either retrospective or small prospective trials of single centers.
