Review Title: | Cytogenetics and molecular genetics of myelodysplastic neoplasms |
Abstract: | According to the 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification (5th edition), the term myelodysplastic neoplasms (abbreviated MDS) has been introduced to replace myelodysplastic syndromes. MDS are a group of clonal hematopoietic stem cell diseases characterized by cytopenia(s), dysplasia in one or more of lineages, ineffective hematopoiesis, and an increased risk of progression to bone marrow failure or to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Current NCCN guidelines and recent review articles have provided in depth discussion on the clinical diagnosis and management of MDS. This review will focus on discussion of the WHO and International Consensus Classification (ICC) updates on the role of cytogenetics and molecular genetics in the diagnosis and risk stratification of MDS. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd |
