Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) are clonal myeloid malignancies, characterized by bone marrow failure leading to cytopenias (and possible myeloproliferation for CMML) and a high propensity to evolve to Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The aim of our retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical and hematological features; the prevalence of MDS subtypes, R-IPSS, and the outcome of 106 Armenian MDS/CMML patients diagnosed over the 2008-2020 period in a single Armenian Hematology center and compare them to French MDS patients included in the GFM registry. Median age in the Armenian cohort was 64 years (range 19-84) and 55% were males. The main MDS subtypes were MDS-MLD (29.2%) and MDS-SLD (27.3%), the least frequent was del 5q (0.9%). By comparison, a higher prevalence of MDS-MLD, MDS-EB2, and MDS-RS was found in the French cohort. Armenian patients' cohort generally had poor access to standard MDS treatment and 42.3% of the patients were transfusion dependent. Overall survival, however, did not significantly differ between Armenian and French cohorts. Our study stresses issues regarding epidemiology, access to diagnosis, difficulties of risk stratification, and access to treatment.
