MYELODYSPLASTIC SYNDROME
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Multi-hit hypothesis
Initial hematopoietic stem cell injury due to
chromosomal abnormalities, cytotoxic
chemotherapy, radiation exposure, viral
infection, chemical exposure, or genetic
predisposition.
Sequential mutations possibly involving N-ras
oncogene, p53, IRF-1, antiapoptotic Bcl-2
PREVALENCE
PREVALENCE
CLINICAL PRESENTATION
Non specific signs and symptoms of various
cytopenias
Fatigue, SOB, exercise intolerance, pallor,
tachycardia
Mucosal bleeding, petechiae, ecchymoses
Infection, fever
B-symptoms are uncommon
Splenomegaly and lymphadenopathy are rare
DIAGNOSIS
MORPHOLOGY
Peripheral changes
include oval
macrocytic red
cells, hypogranular
granulocytes with
the pseudo-Pelger
Hut anomaly, and
giant platelets.
MORPHOLOGY
Megaloblastic red-cell
precursors with
multiple nuclei or
asynchronous
maturation of the
nucleus and the
cytoplasm
MORPHOLOGY
Ringed sideroblasts,
erythroid precursors
with iron-laden
mitochondria
