Classification

Although not a malignant neoplasm, MPDs are classified within the hematological neoplasms.

There are four main myeloproliferative diseases, which can be further categorized by the presence of the Philadelphia chromosome:

Philadelphia Chromosome "positive"	Philadelphia Chromosome "negative"
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML)	Polycythemia vera (PV) Essential thrombocytosis (ET) Myelofibrosis (MF)
