Heavy chain diseases (HCD) are monoclonal lymphoproliferative disorders of B-cells characterized by the synthesis of truncated heavy chains without associated light chains. In patients with mu-HCD, which is a very rare form of HCD, neoplastic cells produce immunoglobulin M heavy chain. The prognosis for patients with mu-HCD is poor, and there is no specific treatment for mu-HCD. In this report, we present a patient with mu-HCD accompanied by splenomegaly and thrombocytopenia. We treated this patient with the fludarabine monophosphate therapy we use for patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. After 5 courses of fludarabine monophosphate treatment, the splenomegaly and thrombocytopenia improved. Fludarabine monophosphate therapy may be a new strategy to improve the prognosis of patients with mu-HCD.
