Prognostic Implications of Cytogenetic Features in Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematologic diseases characterized by refractory cytopenia(s) and variable risk of leukemic progression. Cytogenetic analysis is important in day-to-day clinical practice helping to define subgroups of MDS patients who share similarities in the course of the disease. There are recurring aberrations affecting chromosomes 5, 7, 8, and 2...
متن کاملClinical and prognostic characterization of myelodysplastic syndromes
The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) provide a clinical model for evaluating the evolution of a relatively indolent malignancy into one which is frankly aggressive. The morbidity and mortality in this myeloid clonal hemopathy relate to either marrow dysfunction associated with ineffective hematopoiesis and its peripheral blood cytopenias or to disease evolution into a variant of acute myeloid le...
متن کاملCytogenetic profile of Indian patients with de novo myelodysplastic syndromes
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a clonal haematopoietic stem cell disorder characterized by ineffective haematopoiesis and leukaemia progression. Cytogenetic analysis has proven to be a mandatory part of the diagnosis of MDS as well as a major indicator for predicting clinical course and outcome. Studies on cytogenetics of MDS are reported mostly from the West and only...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Cytogenetic Manifestations in Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) represents a heterogeneous hematopoietic stem-cell disorder that results in abnormal cellular maturation and peripheral blood cytopenias. MDS is characterized by progressive bone marrow failure, which can lead to bleeding, infections, and complications secondary to anemia. Approximately 35% to 40% of patients diagnosed with MDS progress to acute myeloid leukemia (...
متن کاملThe multifaceted nature of myelodysplastic syndromes: clinical, molecular, and biological prognostic features.
The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) consist of a heterogeneous spectrum of myeloid clonal hemopathies. The Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) provides a recently refined method for clinically evaluating the prognosis of patients with MDS. Molecular profiling has recently generated extensive data describing critical hematopoietic molecular and biologic derangements contribu...
