Atypical myeloproliferative disorders: diagnosis and management.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Myeloid disorders constitute a subgroup of hematological malignancies that is separate from lymphoid disorders. The World Health Organization system for classification of tumors of the hematopoietic system divides myeloid disorders into acute myeloid leukemia and chronic myeloid disorders based on the presence or absence, respectively, of acute myeloid leukemia--defining morphological and cytogenetic features including the presence of 20% or more myeloblasts in either the bone marrow or the peripheral blood. A recently proposed semimolecular classification system for chronic myeloid disorders recognizes 3 broad categories: the myelodysplastic syndrome, classic myeloproliferative disorders (MPD), and atypical MPD. Classic MPD includes polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia, and chronic myeloid leukemia. Both myelodysplastic syndrome and BCR/ABL-negative classic MPD were previously discussed as part of the current ongoing symposium on hematological malignancies. The current review focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of both molecularly defined and clinicopathologically assigned categories of atypical MPD: chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, chronic neutrophilic leukemia, chronic basophilic leukemia, chronic eosinophilic leukemia, idiopathic eosinophilia including hypereosinophilic syndrome, systemic mastocytosis, unclassified MPD, and eosinophilic/mast cell disorders associated with mutations of platelet-derived growth factor receptors alpha (PDGFRA) and beta (PDGFRB), FGFR1, and KIT.

Classification, diagnosis and management of myeloproliferative disorders in the JAK2V617F era.
JAK2V617F, a somatic gain-of-function mutation involving the JAK2 tyrosine kinase gene, occurs in nearly all patients with polycythemia vera (PV) but also in a variable proportion of patients with other myeloid disorders; mutational frequency is estimated at approximately 50% in both essential thrombocythemia (ET) and myelofibrosis (MF), up to 20% in certain subcategories of atypical myeloproli...
متن کاملChronic myeloproliferative disorders: the role of tyrosine kinases in pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapy.
The term chronic myeloproliferative disorders was originally used by Damashek to describe the link amongst a group of acquired blood diseases. Recent molecular genetic analysis has provided a scientific basis for this observation. Underlying myeloproliferative disorders are acquired abnormalities of tyrosine kinase genes. These may be chromosomal translocations resulting in the creation of a fu...

The myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPNs) are a unique group of hematologic malignancies characterized by concomitant myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative features. According to the 2008 WHO classification, the category includes atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML), MDS/MPN-unclassifiable (M...
متن کاملbcr/abl-negative, classic myeloproliferative disorders: diagnosis and treatment.
Essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, and myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia constitute the "classic" bcr/abl-negative myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs). Each of these MPDs represents a stem cell-derived clonal myeloproliferation with the respective features of thrombocytosis, erythrocytosis, and bone marrow fibrosis. Unlike with cases of chronic myeloid leukemia, in which the bcr/...

In the 2008 WHO classification, chronic myeloid malignancies that share both myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative features define the myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative group, which includes chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, atypical chronic myeloid leukemia, refractory anemia with ring sideroblasts and thrombocytosis, and myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative un...
