Introduction: Heavy chain disease (HCD) is characterized by the production of a truncated heavy chain monoclonal immunoglobulin lacking the corresponding light chains. The aim is to highlight the difficulties associated with the biological diagnosis of this pathology. Observation: Serum protein electrophoresis showed hypogammaglobulinemia with restricted gammaglobulin heterogeneity and a peak migrating into the beta-2 globulin zone. Immunofixation revealed a monoclonal band in the gamma heavy chain, with no correspondence with the Kappa or Lambda light chains. Conclusion: The observation we have presented reveals that the diagnosis of gamma heavy chain disease is delicate and relies on several techniques.
