چکیده
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of neoplastic diseases the hematopoietic cells manifested by ineffective hematopoiesis and tendency to transform into acute myeloid leukemia. MDS should be considered in differential diagnosis cytopenia, especially elderly. This article presents recommendations experts Polish Adult Leukemia Group (PALG) for myelodysplastic syndromes. We present current classifications prognostic indices, as well diagnostic examinations recommended MDS: cytological, histopathological, immunophenotypic, cytogenetic molecular tests. The aim study is implement up-to-date knowledge about routine clinical practice, from cytopenia specific prognosis patients.

Cladribine (2-chlorodeoxyadenosine, 2-CdA) treatment-associated infections may shorten potentially long-term survival in hairy cell leukemia (HCL). In search of the optimal mode of 2-CdA administration, 132 patients with untreated HCL were randomized to receive either standard 5-day 2-CdA protocol or a novel schedule of 6 weekly 2-CdA infusions suggested to be less toxic. Analysis of treatment ...
