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]
- Various degrees of pancytopenia
- Morphological and functional abnormalities of hematopoietic cells
- Increased risk of transformation into acute myeloid leukemia
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)
- Dysmegakaryocytopoiesis (abnormal megakaryocyte formation)
Dyserythropoiesis
Nuclear Features

- Vacuolization
Dysgranulopoiesis
Nuclear Features
