Abstract

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal neoplasms of variable prognosis according to stratification. Cytogenetics is key in diagnosis and prognosis. Population and methods: At UHE we studied 81 patients with MDS. Clinical characterization, laboratory, IPSS-R, mortality, cytogenetic analysis with description of typical clonal anomalies and atypical SMD. Results: Mean age 71 years, with female predominance. Most frequent subtype was SMD with multilineage dysplasia and unilineal dysplasia, anemia was the most common manifestation. Higher proportion of low and intermediate risk cases (IPSS-R). Mean follow-up did not show differences between groups (p = 0.18). Overall 5-year survival was 79%. Progression to AML in 9.8%. Increased number of deaths in very high (85%) and high risk (50%) groups. Cytogenetics with 72% mitotic index at 24 hours. Clonal karyotype 43% with 53 alterations of 81 studies, being complex in 8.6%. (5q) and -Y 6.1%, (20q), (11q), (17p) and +8 in 3.7%. We found cytogenetic abnormalities not typical of MDS as: -22, -13-11, from (10q), 14p+, 15q+ at 1.2%. Conclusions: Subtypes of MDS, cytopenias, IPSS-R, mortality, structural and numerical cytogenetic alterations; correlate with the literature. Presence of atypical cytogenetic alterations deserves more evaluation and expansion in international database.
