Atypical porokeratosis developing following bone marrow transplantation in a patient with myelodysplastic syndrome.

چکیده
Porokeratosis is an abnormal disease of keratinization of epidermis. It is clinically characterized by margins covered with keratin layer and it typically has an atrophied macule with a protruded, circular form. Histopathologically, it shows the findings of cornoid lamella. Risk factors for its development include organ transplantation, long-term use of corticosteroids, immunocompromised status, including AIDS, and exposure to ultraviolet light. We herein report a case of atypical porokeratosis in a 38-year-old man who developed porokeratosis involving multiple sites following bone marrow transplantation for myelodysplastic syndrome.

Therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia is a rare event and the prognosis is poor. Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is recently being reported as an effective treatment. We present a young patient with acute promyelocytic leukemia who developed myelodysplastic syndrome 52 months after complete remission. She underwent allogeneic peripheral bl...

We report the case of a man with acute erythroleukemia (AML-M6), who developed myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) involving U2AF1 mutation 8 years after HLA-matched unrelated bone marrow transplantation. It’s donor cell origin which proved by molecular analysis using Short Tandem Repeat (STR) sequences. To our knowledge, this is the first case that usage of demethylation drug in DCL patient.

Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome is a mixed clonal disorder of bone marrow progenitor cells. Understanding the pattern of the different lineage-specific, immature, and mature markers in myelodysplastic syndrome will help in setting-up the frame of reference to diagnose. Patients and Methods: We compared 60 bone marrow samples from 30 newly-diagnosed patients with myelodysplastic syndrome ...
متن کاملDiagnosis and management of aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.
The bone marrow failure states, aplastic anemia and myelodysplastic syndrome, are characterized by reticulocytopenic anemia, with variable neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. The bone marrow biopsy is very hypocellular in aplastic anemia, but it is usually hypercellular in myelodysplastic syndrome. Marrow cytogenetic abnormalities are present in approximately half of myelodysplastic syndrome pati...
متن کاملEarly Improvement in Marrow Fibrosis Following Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation for a Patient with Myelodysplastic Syndrome with Bone Marrow Fibrosis
The prognosis for myelodysplastic syndrome with bone marrow fibrosis (MDS-F) is worse than the prognosis of MDS without fibrosis. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative therapy; however, the indications and the procedures involved in HSCT remain unclear. We herein describe a 69-year-old Japanese man with MDS-F who received haploidentical HSCT and post-transplantatio...
