Overview

Myelodysplastic syndrome comprises a heterogeneous group of clonal bone marrow disorders.[1] Cytogenetic abnormalities involved in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndrome include isolated deletion of 5q, monosomy 7, and monosomy 8.[1] Myelodysplastic syndrome is associated with Fanconi syndrome, Diamond-Blackfan anemia, and Shwachman-Diamond syndrome.[2] There are no characteristic findings of myelodysplastic syndrome on gross pathology. On microscopic histopathological analysis, dyserythropoiesis, dysgranulopoiesis, and dysmegakaryocytopoiesis are findings of myelodysplastic syndrome.[1]

Pathogenesis

Myelodysplastic syndrome comprises a heterogeneous group of clonal bone marrow disorders characterized by:[3]

Genetics

Cytogenetic abnormalities involved in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndrome include:[1]

  • Isolated deletion of 5q
  • Isolated deletion of 17p
  • Monosomy 7
  • Monosomy 8

Associated Conditions

Myelodysplastic syndrome is associated with:[2]

Gross Pathology

There are no characteristic findings of myelodysplastic syndrome on gross pathology.

Microscopic Pathology

On microscopic histopathological analysis, characteristic findings of myelodysplastic syndrome include:[1]

  • Dyserythropoiesis (abnormal red blood cell formation)
  • Dysgranulopoiesis (abnormal granulocyte formation)

  • CD34 positive- (myeloid) progenitor/precursor cells
  • CD117 positive- (myeloid) progenitor/precursor cells, mast cells
  • Tryptase positive- mast cells, immature basophils
