CHRONIC MYELOPROLIFERATIVE
DISORDERS (MPD)
MPD are clonal diseases originating in pluripotential
haematopoietic stem cell. The clonal expansion results in
increased and abnormal haematopoiesis and produces a group of
interrelated syndromes, classified according to the predominant
phenotypic expression of the myeloproliferative clone.

1. Hemoconcentration
2. Spurious polycythemia (Gaisboek syndrome)

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA (PV)
Patogenesis
PV is a clonal disorder involving the hematopoietic stem cells; it leads to an
autonomous proliferation of the erythroid, myeloid, and megakaryocytic cell
lines. Increased erythroid proliferation is usually more prominent than that of the
other cell lines and occurs independently of erythropoietin levels (which are
usually very low in PV)
Epidemiology
The incidence rate of PV is approximately 2 per 100.000 population.
PV is slightly more prevalent in males with male/female ratio ranging from 1,2
to 2:1. Median age at diagnosis was 60 years in men and 62 years in women.

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA
symptoms
1. Erythrocytosis and hyperviscosity, leading to impaired oxygen delivery:
• Poor CNS circulation: headaches, dizziness, vertigo, tinnitus and visual
disturbances
• Poor coronary circulation: angina pectoris
• Peripheral circulation intermittent claudication
2. Venous thrombosis or thromboembolism
3. Hemorrhage: epistaxis, gingival bleeding, ecchymoses, gastrointestinal bleeding
4. Abdominal pain secondary to poptic ulcer
5. Early satiety due to splenomegaly
6. Pruritus is secondary to increased histamine release from the basophils and
mast cells

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA
physical examination
1. Splenomegaly – is present in 75% of patients at the time of
diagnosis.
2. Hepatomegaly - is present in approximately 30% of patients at
the time of diagnosis.
3. Hypertension
4. On examination of the eye grounds, the vessels may be
engorged, tortuous, and irregular in diameter; the veins may be
dark purple.( fundus policythaemicus)
• Facial plethora

POLYCYTHEMIA VERA -therapy (1)
I. Patients under the age of 50 with no history of thrombosis and without severe
thrombocytosis (greater than 1000G/L)-phlebotomy alone
- initially 450-500 ml phlebotomy every every other day until the
hematocrit is less than 46%
- older patients or these with underlying cardiovascular disase should
undergo smaller phlebotomies 200-300mL twice weekly or
100-150mLevery day until Ht<46%
- subsequently, Ht should be mainted between 42-46%
- fluid replacement so that the patients remains isovolemic
II. Patients over the age of 70, or with history of thrombosis and with severe
thrombocytosis (greater than 1000G/L)-myelosuppresive agent
- Hydroxyurea 15-30mg/kg
III. Patients 50-70 years with no history of thrombosis and without severe thrombocytosis
(greater than 1000G/L) individualize therapy I or II

Myelofibrosis=agnogenic myeloid metaplasia
(primary myelofibrosis, osteomyelofibrosis, idiopathic myelofibrosis,
myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia )
Myelofibrosis is a chronic myeloproliferative disease with clonal
hematopoesis and secondary(non-clonal) hyperproliferation of
fibroblasts (stimulated by PDGF, EGF, TGF- released from
myeloid cells, mainly from neoplastic megakaryocytes) with
increased collagen synthesis. It produces bone marrow fibrosis and
to extramedullary hematopoesis in the spleen or in multiple organs.
13
MYELOFIBROSIS
•
•
•
The incidence of Myelofibrosis is about 0,5/100.000. The median
age at diagnosis was approximately 65 years.
Common complaints: fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, bone pain,
abdominal pain, fever
Physical findings: splenomegaly (often giant), hepatomegaly(in
about 50% of patients), symptoms of anaemia and
thrombocytopenia
14
MYELOFIBROSIS
- laboratory findings (1)
• Anemia - Hb<10g/dL in 60% of patients
• Leukocytosis with counts generally below 50G/L(in about 50%),
•
•
•
•
•
•
leukopenia (in
about 25% at the time of diagnosis)
thrombocytosis in 50% at the time of diagnosis, with disease progression
thrombocytopenia becomes common
eosinophilia and basophilia may be present
retikulocytosis
LAP score is usually elevaatedd
Increased level of lactate dehydrogenase
uric acid level is increased in most patients
15
MYELOFIBROSIS
- laboratory findings(2)
• Peripheral blood smear:anisocytosis and poikilocytosis with the
presence of teardrop-shaped and nucleated red cells, immature
neutrophils but myeloblasts not always
• Aspiration of bone marrow is usually ansuccessful (dry tap).
Smears from successful aspirates usually show neutrophilic and
megakaryocytic hyperplasia
• Trephine biopsy often shows a hypercellular marrow with increased
reticulin fibers and variable collagen deposition . Increased numbers of
megakaryocytes are frequently seen.
16
MYELOFIBROSIS
- diagnosis (Polycythemia Vera Study Group criteria)
• Myelofibrosis involving more than one-third of the sectional area
of a bone marrow biopsy
• a leukoerythroblaststic blood picture
• splenomegaly
• absence of the well-established diagnostic criteria for the MPD(i.e
absence of increased red cell mass or the Ph chromosome),with
systemic disorders excluded
17
MYELOFIBROSIS - therapy 1
1. Androgens(oxymetholone 2-4mg/kg) in anemia from decreased red cell
production -overall response is about 40%
2. Cortykosteroids(prednisone 1mg/kg) in anemia with shortened red cell life-spanresponse in 25-50% of patients
3. Hydroksyurea (15- 20mg/kg) for the control of leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, or
organomegaly
4. Allopurinol-to prevent hyperuricaemia
5. Vit. D3-analogues(1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol-1ug/d (?)
6. Transfusions of packed red cells for anemia or platelets for thrombocytopenia
with bleeding
18
MYELOFIBROSIS - therapy 2
6. Splenectomy should be considered for: portal hypertension, painful
splenomegaly, refractory anemia and thrombocytopenia, or exccessive
transfusion requirement. However,the procedere is hazardous (an
operative mortality is up to 38%).
7. Splenic irradiation: when there is a contrindication to splenectomy
8. Allogeneic stem-cell transplantation: for young patients who have a
poor prognosis and have a suitable donor identified.
9. Experimental therapies: Interferon-, antifibrotic and antiangiogenic
drugs (anagrelide, suramin, pirfenidone, thalidomide,)
19
MYELOFIBROSIS
- prognosis
- a median survival of 3,5 to 5,5 years
- the principal causes of death are infections,
thrombohemorrhagic events, heart failure, and
leukemic transformation
- leukemic transformation occurs in
approximately 20% of patients during first 10
years
20
ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA
(ET)
ET is a clonal myeloproliferative disorder
characterized by bone marrow hyperplasia
with excessive proliferation of megakaryocytes
and sustained elevation of the platelet count.
21
ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA
clinical picture
1. Thrombotic complications (intermittent or permanent
occlusion of small blood vessels)
• transient cerebral and ocular ischemic episodes that may
progress to infarction
• peripheral arterial occlusive disease associated with
„erythromelalgia”(intermittent, painful errythema and
cyanosis of the fingers and toes
2. Hemorrhagic complications - bleeding after surgery and
spontaneus upper gastrointestinal bleeding (the hemorrhagic
tendency is worsened if nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory
agent are administered
3. Splenomegaly - 20-50% patients
4. Hepatomegaly - rarely
22
ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA
laboratory findings

•Neutrophilia and a mild shift to the left(usually to
metamyelocyte)
•Slight eosinophilia and basophilia

24
ESSENTIAL THROMBOCYTHEMIA
-THERAPY
1. No treatment- asymptomatic( without thrombotic and bleeding
complications), young (< 60 r.ż.) patients with platelet count<1000G/L
2. Cytoreductive therapy – patients with platelet count>1000 G/L, especially
for these with previous thrombotic or bleeding problems
- hydroxyurea at doses 15-30mg/kg,, to maintein platelet count
between 400-600 G/l
3. Anti-aggregating therapy: Aspirin 75-150mg/d  dipyridamol for older
patients and/or with a cardiovascular risk
4. Anagrelide (Agrylin)- drug that produces selective platelet cytoreduction,
and it also inhibits platelet activation  doses from 0,5mg every 6 hours,
to max. 10 mg/d )
5. Interferon-: 3 million units/d s.c.
