1. Myeloid Mania
2. Goals and Objectives Review myelodysplastic syndromes
Review myeloproliferative disorders
Answer questions
Appreciate the intricacies and beauty of bone marrow and the process of hematopoiesis both as a fundamental means of maintaining homeostasis and an efficient use of otherwise undesirable real estate
3. Myelodysplastic Syndromes Pathogenesis
Mutation in multi-potent stem cell
Abnormal apoptosis
Bottom line
Ineffective hematopoiesis
Complications
Bleeding, infection (50%)
End result
Transformation to AML
4. MDS: Diagnosis Average age: 65
History of exposure to
Chemotherapy (alkylating agents)
Radiation
Hydrocarbons
Xylene
Toluene
Agent Orange
5. MDS: Diagnosis Bone marrow
Peripheral smear
Cytogenetics
6. FAB Classification
Refractory anemia
Refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts
Refractory anemia with excess blasts
Refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation
Now considered leukemia
Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia
Now classified as myelodysplastic- myeloproliferative overlap syndrome
7. WHO Classification
Refractory anemia
Refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts
Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia
Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia and ringed sideroblasts
Refractory anemia with excess blasts I and II
5q- syndrome
Myelodysplasia unclassifiable
8. WHO Classification Refractory anemia (30-40%)
< 5 % myeloblasts
Median survival 27-50 months
Refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (5-15%)
< 5 % myeloblasts
>15 % ringed sideroblasts
Iron-laden mitochondria surrounding nucleus
Median survival 40-50 months
Treatment
Chronic transfusion, EPO
Bone marrow transplant
Prognosis
Least likely to progress
9. WHO Classification Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia
Bicytopenia or pancytopenia
< 5 % blasts
Dysplasia in > 10% of cells in 2-3 lineages
< 1 x 10^9/L monocytes
Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia and ringed sideroblasts
Bicytopenia or pancytopenia
< 5 % blasts
Dysplasia in > 10% of cells in 2-3 lineages
< 1 x 10^9/L monocytes
> 15 % sideroblasts
10. WHO Classification Refractory anemia with excess blasts (20-30%)
Cytopenias
Dysplasia of one or more lineages
5-9% blasts (I)
10-19% blasts (II)
5q- syndrome
Women
Myelodysplasia unclassifiable
Megakaryocytic dysplasia with fibrosis
11. MDS: Chemotherapy Azacitidine
Pyrimidine nucleoside analogue
Delays transformation
Improves quality of life
Lenalidomide
Analogue of thalidomide
5q-
12. MyeloproliferativeDisorders
Chronic myeloid leukemia
Polycythemia vera
Essential thrombocytopenia
Myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia
13. CML Pathogenesis
t(9:22)
Chronic (proliferative) phase
Fatigue
Weight loss
Splenomegaly
Thrombocytosis
Accelerated phase
Blast crisis
ALL or AML
14. CML: Treatment Imatinib
Inhibits BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase
95% complete remission
15. P. Vera Diagnosis
A1. Hgb >18.5 (males, 16.5 (females) or 25% elevation
A2. No secondary erythrocytosis
A3. Splenomegaly
A4. Clonal genetic abnormality
A5. Endogenous erythroid colony formation in vitro
B. Thrombocytosis (>400), bone marrow Bx with panmyelosis, leukocytosis (>12), low EPO
Mutation: JAK2 (65-95%)
Presentation
Headache, pruritis, dyspnea, blurred vision, night sweats, facial plethora, splenomegaly
16. P. Vera Prognosis
Median survival 15 years
Treatment
Serial phlebotomy
Hydroxyurea
Aspirin
17. ET Most common MPD
Presentation
Erythromelalgia
Livedo reticularis
Acral dysesthesia
Headache
Visual symptoms
Arterial/venous thromboses
Splenomegaly (50%)
18. ET Diagnosis
Platelets > 600,000
JAK2 (50%)
Treatment
None
< 60
Asymptomatic
No h/o thrombosis
Platelets < 1,500,000
Hydroxyurea
Goal: platelets < 400,000
Aspirin, plateletpheresis
19. Myelofibrosiswith Myeloid Metaplasia Pathogenesis
Fibrosis-promoting cytokines
Diagnosis
Hepatosplenomegaly
Extramedullary hematopoiesis
Normocytic anemia
Circulating erythroid and myeloid precursors
Teardrop cells
Bone marrow fibrosis
20. Myelofibrosiswith Myeloid Metaplasia Prognosis
Median survival 3-5 years
Complications
Marrow failure
Transformation to acute leukemia
Portal hypertension
Treatment
Splenectomy
Thalidomide +/- prednisone
Bone marrow transplant
21. MPD Recap Mutation / Gene / Treatment of CML?
Philadelphia / BCR-ABL / imatinib
CBC finding in P.vera?
Hgb > 18.5 (males), 16.5 (females)
Mutation / Treatment in ET?
JAK2 (50%) / none
Bone marrow finding in myelofibrosis
Fibrosis
