Overview

NCI Definition: A myelodysplastic syndrome characterized by dysplastic changes involving only one myeloid cell lineage in the bone marrow. It primarily affects older adults and includes refractory anemia, refractory neutropenia, and refractory thrombocytopenia. [1]

Refractory cytopenia with unilineage dysplasias most frequently harbor alterations in TET2, ASXL1, VAV2, PHF6, and JAK2 [2].

Most Commonly Altered Genes in Refractory Cytopenia with Unilineage Dysplasia

TET2 Mutation, ASXL1fs, VAV2 S525G, TET2fs, and TET2 c.5533-c.6005 Missense are the most common alterations in refractory cytopenia with unilineage dysplasia [2].
