Myeloid neoplasms with germline GATA2 mutation


Published Date: 07/03/2018

Wright stain demonstrates granulocytic dysplasia in the peripheral blood of a patient diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with germline GATA2 mutation. Shown is a dysplastic neutrophil with cytoplasmic hypogranularity, abnormal nuclear segmentation and chromatin clumping. Patients with MDS with germline GATA2 mutation have a high risk of evolution to AML or development of CMML.
