Current Opinion in Hematology, 1996
Myelodysplasia is being increasingly recognized as an important disease not only in the elderly but also in younger patients. It is also being seen more commonly as a complication of treatment with chemotherapeutic agents. Recent advances have distinguished between the different forms of therapy-related myelodysplasia as well as their genetic ...

Annual Review of Medicine, 2010
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a collection of stem cell disorders characterized by impaired hematopoiesis resulting in low peripheral blood counts. The majority of patients with MDS present with symptoms related to anemia; however, bleeding and infection are the most common causes of death.

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.

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.

Childhood Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2023Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in children is rare, accounting for < 5% of all childhood hematologic malignancies. With the advent of next-generation sequencing, the etiology of many childhood MDS (cMDS) cases has been elucidated with the finding of predisposing germline mutations in one-quarter to one-third of cases; somatic mutations have also been ...

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 ...

The Lancet, 2014
Myelodysplastic syndromes are clonal marrow stem-cell disorders, characterised by ineffective haemopoiesis leading to blood cytopenias, and by progression to acute myeloid leukaemia in a third of patients. 15% of cases occur after chemotherapy or radiotherapy for a previous cancer; the syndromes are most common in elderly people.

Pediatric Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2021Pediatric myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) comprise less than 5% of childhood malignancies. Approximately 30% to 45% of pediatric MDS cases are associated with an underlying genetic predisposition syndrome. A subset of patients present with MDS/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) following intensive chemotherapy for an unrelated malignancy.

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.

Hypoplastic myelodysplastic syndrome
Cancer, 1988Over a period of 8 years 11 of 64 patients seen at Loyola University Medical Center with the diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) also exhibited bone marrow hypoplasia (marrow cellularity of 25% or less) at presentation. The other 53 had normocellular or hypercellular marrow.
