A discordant, falsely low free light chains (flc), type lambda (flc lambda) result was obtained on a patient sample on a bn ii system. The discordant result was reported to the physician(s), who questioned the result. At the end of (b)(6) 2018, different samples from the patient were tested for flc lambda in two alternate laboratories, resulting higher than the initial result. The results obtained at the other laboratories were reported to the physician(s) and the highest result was considered to be the correct result. On (b)(6) 2018, the sample was diluted in a 1 to 10 dilution and repeated on the same bn ii system, resulting lower. The result obtained on the diluted sample was reported to the physician(s), who questioned the result. There are no known reports of patient intervention or adverse health consequences due to the discordant, falsely low flc lambda results.
