Abstract

Within the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of haematopoietic neoplasms, particularly its fifth version from 2022 (WHO-HAEM5), myeloid neoplasms are not only grouped into myeloproliferative (MPN) and myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS). There is also a group of haematological disorders that share features of both categories termed myelodysplastic /myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN). In this article, we aim to provide a comprehensive and practical guide to WHO-HAEM5 highlighting the genetic alterations that underlie MPN and MDS/MPN. This guide provides an overview of the overlapping commonalities among these entities, as well as their unique characteristics.
