Summary
Myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPNs) constitute a group of clonal hematopoietic disorders with hybrid features; those of a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) include bone marrow hypercellularity due to proliferation of one or more of the myeloid (as opposed to lymphoid) lineages with effective hematopoiesis, leading to a peripheral “cytosis” or “cytoses.” At the same time, these disorders show variable morphologic or functional dysplasia with ineffective hematopoiesis, resulting in cytopenia(s), findings more characteristic of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The blast percentage is always less than 20, though sometimes transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) occurs.
