Myelodysplastic–myeloproliferative diseases

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Myelodysplastic–myeloproliferative diseases are a category of hematological malignancies disorders which have characteristics of both myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative conditions.[1]

When a hematological malignancy is characterised by normal differentiation of cells of myeloid cell line, it is referred to as myeloproliferative. On the other hand, when there is abnormal differentiation of cells of myeloid cell line, it is referred to as myelodysplastic.[citation needed]
