Proposal of criteria for dyserythropoiesis in the diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndromes
The percentage manifesting dysplasia in bone marrow needed to qualify as significant is ≥10 % in each lineage. However, detailed analyses of this threshold have not been reported. Here, we analyzed dyserythropoiesis (dysE) in 109 myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients with 21 immune thrombocytopen...

Summary: | The percentage manifesting dysplasia in bone marrow needed to qualify as significant is ≥10 % in each lineage. However, detailed analyses of this threshold have not been reported. Here, we analyzed dyserythropoiesis (dysE) in 109 myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients with 21 immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)/12 hemolytic anemia (HA) patients as a control. In present study, mild megaloblastic erythroblasts were specifically named ‘red cell with abnormal chromatin clumping (RCACC)’. RCACC ≥10 % in erythroblasts was observed in 29 % of ITP patients and 58 % of HA patients. The numbers of MDS patients with RCACC in erythroblasts |
