Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) Overview

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) comprises a group of myeloid hematological disorders distinguished by reduced blood cell counts, abnormalities in the bone marrow, and a significant risk of evolving into acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Clinical manifestations primarily result from low blood cell counts, predominantly anemia, leading to fatigue, shortness of breath, and potentially angina. Less frequently, MDS may manifest as thrombocytopenia, resulting in spontaneous bleeding or neutropenia, making individuals susceptible to bacterial or, in rarer cases, fungal infections. The underlying cause remains unknown in 80% of cases. In the remaining 20%, it may be attributed to acquired factors such as prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy, occupational exposure to benzene derivatives or ionizing radiation, or inherited factors, including gene mutations mainly involving DDX41, GATA2, RUNX, and telomerase genes, or DNA instability (notably seen in Fanconi anemia patients who are prone to developing MDS).
