What is Myelodysplastic Syndrome with del(5q) about?
An 88-year-old woman diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome with isolated del(5q) presents with macrocytic anemia and atypical hematopoiesis, characterized by small, hypolobated megakaryocytes. Despite being transfusion dependent, she has remained well without treatment for 8 months, with lenalidomide treatment under consideration. This condition is more common in older women and is defined by anemia without other cytopenias, retaining its classification in the latest WHO guidelines.
