Light chain amyloidosis has very rarely been reported in association with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We reported on a 76-years-old female who presented with simultaneous kappa-restricted chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and a lambda-restricted multiple myeloma with plasma cells causing AL amyloidosis involving the heart. While monoclonal immunoglobulins occasionallyproduced by CLL have previously been implicated in AL amyloidosis, there only a few cases reported of AL amyloidosis resulting from a distinct plasma cell dyscrasia that is not clonally related to the concurrent CLL.
轻链淀粉样变性与慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)相关的报道极为罕见。我们报告了一名76岁女性,她同时患有κ轻链受限的慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)和λ轻链受限的多发性骨髓瘤,其浆细胞导致心脏受累的AL型淀粉样变性。虽然CLL偶尔产生的单克隆免疫球蛋白以前被认为与AL型淀粉样变性有关,但仅有少数病例报道了由一种与并发CLL无克隆相关性的独特浆细胞异常增生导致的AL型淀粉样变性。
