    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myelodysplastic_syndrome

    A myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is one of a group of cancers in which blood cells in the bone marrow do not mature, and as a result, do not develop into healthy blood cells. [3] Early on, no symptoms typically are seen. [3] Later, symptoms may include fatigue, shortness of breath, bleeding disorders, anemia, or frequent infections. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myelodysplastic...

    Myelodysplastic–myeloproliferative diseases are a category of hematological malignancies which have characteristics of both myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative conditions. [ 1 ] When a hematological malignancy is characterised by normal differentiation of cells of myeloid cell line, it is referred to as myeloproliferative .

  4. French–American–British classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French–American–British...

    The French–American–British (FAB) classification systems refers to a series of classifications of hematologic diseases. It is based on the presence of dysmyelopoiesis and the quantification of myeloblasts and erythroblasts. [1] It was first produced in 1976. [2] Types include:

  5. Sideroblastic anemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideroblastic_anemia

    Sideroblastic anemias are often described as responsive or non-responsive in terms of increased hemoglobin levels to pharmacological doses of vitamin B 6. [citation needed] 1- Congenital: 80% are responsive, though the anemia does not completely resolve. 2- Acquired clonal: 40% are responsive, but the response may be minimal.

  6. Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_myelomonocytic...

    The myeloid neoplasms contain acute and chronic leukemias, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). MPNs are characterised by increased production of myeloid blood cells, with a higher than normal number of mature cells.

  7. Myeloproliferative neoplasm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myeloproliferative_neoplasm

    The concept of myeloproliferative disease was first proposed in 1951 by the hematologist William Dameshek. [18] The discovery of the association of MPNs with the JAK2 gene marker in 2005 and the CALR marker in 2013 improved the ability to classify MPNs. [19] MPNs were classified as blood cancers by the World Health Organization in 2008. [20]

  9. Dysplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dysplasia

    Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of cancers in which immature blood cells in the bone marrow do not mature and therefore do not become healthy blood cells. [2] Problems with blood cell formation result in some combination of low red blood cells, low platelets, and low white blood cells. [2]
