Is waldenstroms hereditary?

Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia is not considered hereditary, as most cases occur sporadically without a clear genetic link. However, some studies suggest a potential association with certain genetic predispositions, particularly in families with other lymphoproliferative disorders. While having a family history of related conditions may slightly increase risk, the majority of patients do not have a direct hereditary connection. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized information regarding risk factors.
