During the past 15 years, important progress has been made in the understanding of the biology and prognosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). MDS is a clonal disorder characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, which can lead to either fatal cytopenias or acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Risk-adapted treatment strategies were established because of

AbstractThe last decade has witnessed a multistep evolution in the understanding of the natural history, clinical manifestations, and some of the molecular mechanisms that underlie the ineffective hematopoiesis and leukemic transformation in the myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

Blood, 2008
AbstractThere has been a remarkable explosion of knowledge into the molecular defects that underlie the acute and chronic leukemias, leading to the introduction of targeted therapies that can block key cellular events essential for the viability of the leukemic cell.

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2008
Pediatric myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), though rare, constitutes a distinct entity quite different from adult MDS. They have unique clinical features, aggressive clinical course with an overall mean survival of only 9.9 months. A pediatric approach to the WHO classification has become necessary since the WHO classification of MDS has failed to ...

Pathology Patterns Reviews, 2003
Myelodysplastic syndromes are a group of clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders in which there is ineffective hematopoiesis. Affected patients are primarily elderly people, but also at risk are certain subsets of patients who have been exposed to antineoplastic chemotherapy and select patients with primary bone marrow failure syndromes such as ...

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2007
The myelodysplastic syndrome(s) (MDS), bone marrow stem cell malignancies that share pathogenetic overlap with acute myeloid leukemia, are characterized by peripheral blood cytopenias and, in more advanced subtypes, varied degrees of maturation arrest. Premature apoptosis of bone marrow cellular elements contributes to ineffective hematopoiesis, which ...

AbstractThe myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are characterized by hemopoietic insufficiency associated with cytopenias leading to serious morbidity plus the additional risk of leukemic transformation. Therapeutic dilemmas exist in MDS because of the disease’s multifactorial pathogenetic features, heterogeneous stages, and the patients’ generally elderly

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2000
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of disorders with a variable clinical course and prognosis. Treatment should be individualized based on the patient's age, subtype, percent blasts in the marrow, and cytogenetics. The use of the International Prognostic Scoring Index is helpful in assigning prognosis.

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2022
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a family of myeloid cancers with diverse genotypes and phenotypes characterized by ineffective haematopoiesis and risk of transformation to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Some epidemiological data indicate that MDS incidence is increasing in resource-rich regions but this is controversial.

Seminars in Oncology Nursing, 1990
A cure for MDS has yet to be found. The aim of therapy is to attempt to restore normal hematopoiesis and prevent evolution to acute leukemia. The major trend is supportive care. Blood counts and bone marrow aspirations are taken to evaluate the disease, and transfusions of blood products and antibiotics are given when necessary.
