Quality Control Initiative on the Evaluation of the Dysmegakaryopoiesis in Myeloid Neoplasms: Difficulties in the Assessment of Dysplasia

Highlights • The presence of micromegakaryocytes correlates strongly with myeloid neoplasia • Micromegakaryocytes can be identified reliably • Multinucleated megakaryocytes are not specific for myeloid neoplasia • Cytoplasmic dysplasia is not useful in recognising MDS • ‘Possibly dysplastic’ cells s...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • The presence of micromegakaryocytes correlates strongly with myeloid neoplasia • Micromegakaryocytes can be identified reliably • Multinucleated megakaryocytes are not specific for myeloid neoplasia • Cytoplasmic dysplasia is not useful in recognising MDS • ‘Possibly dysplastic’ cells should be excluded from counts in suspected MDS
