Overview
The development of myelofibrosis is a a slow process and it does not cause early symptoms. A significant proportion of the patients can be asymptomatic and the diagnosis is usually made in the setting of an unrelated condition. The most overlapping and common findings encountered are anemia and splenomegaly presenting as weakness, easy fatigability, palpitations, and dyspnea in the case of anemia and early satiety with possible accompanying left upper quadrant discomfort if splenomegaly is present.
The disease has a progressive course and can result in pancytopenia as the bone marrow failure ensues. This can result in bleeding complications, easy bruising, increase in the susceptibility to infections, and worsening anemia. The bone marrow failure paves the way for extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) which mainly occurs in the reticuloendothelial tissues.
If left untreated, myelofibrosis can lead to severe complications, the most feared of which are acute leukemia, heart failure, and portal hypertension.
Natural History
- Myelofibrosis is a chronic, malignant hematologic disorder which can have a slow progressive course.[1]
- Along the course of the disease, myelofibrosis most commonly presents with symptoms related to hypermetabolic state, anemia, and splenomegaly.[2]
- Progression of the disease can vary from patient to patient and a significant proportion of patients can be asymptomatic.[3][4][2]
- The disease is characterized by irregularity in the blood cells as a result of marrow fibrosis and the clinical course correlates with this accordingly.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
- Myelofibrosis can manifest as anemia if the pathology involves the red blood cells (RBCs) as the initiating event and it can present as shortness of breath, fatigue, lightheadedness, weakness, headaches, irritability, and pale skin color.[12][13][14]
- Patients can present with increased susceptibility to infections which can be the presenting or an additional symptom. These infections can be viral, bacterial, or fungal in origin.[15]
- The disrupted platelet production results in bleeding complications such as easy bruising following minimal injury and bleeding from the mucous membranes.[16][17]
- As a compensation for the lack of efficient blood cell production in the bone marrow, extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) can ensue which will present as splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, lymph node enlargement, and skin, kidney, or lung pathology.[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]
- Bone or joint pain can be a late presentation of myelofibrosis.[27]
- The progression of myelofibrosis and its respective presentation can further be aligned with the complications encountered as a result of the disease itself.
Complications
Common complications of myelofibrosis include:
- Acute myelogenous leukemia[4][28][29]
- Infections[30][15]
- Bleeding[31][32]
- Thrombohemorrhagic events[33][34][35][36][31]
- Hepatic failure[37][38]
- Heart failure[39][40]
- Gout[41][42][43]
- Progressive marrow failure[6][7][8][9][10][11]
- Acquired myeloperoxidase deficiency[44]
- Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy[45][46][47][48][49]
- Splenic rupture[50][51]
- Pulmonary hypertension[52][53][54]
- Portal hypertension[55][56][57][58]
- Peritonitis[59]
- Alveolar proteinosis[60]
- Spinal cord compression[30][61][62][63][64][65][66]
- Intestinal obstruction[67]
- Urological pathologies such as:[68][69]
Prognosis
- The Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS)‐plus currently provides the most comprehensive prognostic tool for primary myelofibrosis (PMF). This scoring system comprises of eight risk variables:[75][4][76]
- Age >65 years
- Hemoglobin <10 g/dl
- Leucocyte count >25 × 109/l
- Circulating blasts ≥1%
- Constitutional symptoms
- Unfavourable karyotype (i.e., complex karyotype or sole or two abnormalities that include +8, -7/7q-, i(17q), inv(3), 5/5q-, 12p-, or 11q23 rearrangement)
- Transfusion dependency
- Platelet count <100 × 109/l
- A genetically inspired prognostic scoring system (GIPSS) that stratifies primary myelofibrosis (PMF) patients by genetic variants alone has recently been proposed but the lack of overlapping prognostic variables between the dynamic international prognostic scoring system (DIPSS) and the genetically inspired prognostic scoring system (GIPSS) has also increased the risk for disagreement between the two valid prognostic models.[77]
- The genetically inspired prognostic scoring system (GIPSS) performs equally well for both primary and secondary myelofibrosis and outperforms the dynamic international prognostic scoring system (DIPSS) in patients where the two models disagree.
- Monocytosis is also a powerful and can be an independent predictor of inferior survival in primary myelofibrosis (PMF).[78]
- Marked elevation of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) can independently predict shorter overall and leukemia-free survival in primary myelofibrosis (PMF) patients.[79]
- Endogenous erythroid colony (EEC) growth, a higher JAK2V617F allele burden, and calreticulin (CALR) mutations can also act as independent predictors for better outcomes in primary myelofibrosis (PMF).[80][81]
