Differential Diagnosis of Myeloid Disorders with fibrosis
• Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders
• Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (M7)
• Myelodysplastic Syndrome
• Acute Panmyelosis with Myelofibrosis

• Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (M7) – Blasts >20% could not be established
• Myelodysplastic Syndrome
• Acute Panmyelosis with Myelofibrosis

Myelodysplastic Syndromes• Group of clonal disorders characterized by
peripheral cytopenias and dysplasia– Elderly patient without organomegaly– Slow onset, with chronic progressive course to BM
failure
• MDS “with fibrosis”– Fibrosis is not a typical feature of MDS– Is it a distinct clinico-pathological entity?

• A rare acute myeloid disorder with an unfavorable prognosis
• Definition: – “An acute pan-myeloid proliferation with
accompanying fibrosis of the marrow”
• Clinical Features:– Marked pancytopenia without splenomegaly– Abrupt onset, rapidly progressive

Morphologic Overlap• Hypercellular marrow with variable degrees of
myeloid hyperplasia
• Dysplasia– MDS:
• Dyserythopoiesis in virtually all• Dysmegakaryopoiesis common
– APMF: • Granulocyte dysplasia common• Dysmegakaryopoiesis characteristically prominent
• Moderate-marked increased in reticulin fibrosis

Acute Panmyelosis with Myeolofibrosis: an entity distinct from acute megakaryoblastic leukemia
Orazi, et al. Modern Pathology. 2005
• The true nature of APMF is not completely understood
• Some believe it is a variant of AML, others an equivalent to AMKL and yet others an acute variant of MDS
![Page 22: Case Presentation No. 075 - Indiana Universitypathol/HematopathologyWorkshop/login... · Case Presentation No. 075 Session 4. Myelodysplastic Syndrome Cristina Montalvo, MD Baylor](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042110/5e8a9ffb3e5d3175493b234b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Acute Panmyelosis with Myeolofibrosis: an entity distinct from acute megakaryoblastic leukemia
Orazi, et al. Modern Pathology. 2005
• Comparison of 11 cases of AMKL and 4 cases of APMF
– Higher frequency of BM blasts in AMKL than in APMF • Mean of 63% vs. 21%
– The blasts in all cases of AMKL stained strongly for CD42b and negative for MPO, a finding consistent with their megakaryoblasticnature
• Paralleled flow cytometric results, ie. Positivity of CD61 and CD41 in the majority of the blasts
– In APMF, the blasts did not express significant megakaryocytic reactivity, but were identifiable by CD34
• In the biospy, blasts were less numerous overall and the background was more cellular and polymorphic

• Important clinical differences exist between APMF and MDS-F, particularly the abrupt onset of APMF and its shorter survival
• It is prudent to maintain these two diagnostic entities separate and to consider APMF as a variant of AML as defined by the WHO

Acute Panmyelosis with Myelofibrosis: Clinical, Immunophenotypic and Cytogenetic Study
of Twelve CasesSuvajdzic, et. al. Leukemia and Lymphoma. 2004
• It is important to recognize that APMF is an acute process and has sufficient number of blasts, ≥20%, to be considered an AML.
• APMF can be distinguished from the fibrotic form of MDS by its slow onset, chronic course, ≤20% blasts and a much less pronounced marrow fibrosis.
• The BM fibrosis in APMF is reactive, evoked by the megakaryocytic cell line which secretes transforming growth factor – β and thereby stimulating a fibroblast proliferation.

Acute Panmyelosis with Myelofibrosis: Clinical, Immunophenotypic and Cytogenetic Study
of Twelve CasesSuvajdzic, et. al. Leukemia and Lymphoma. 2004
• The cytogenetic analyses did not establish any characteristic chromosomal abnormalities.
• Clonal changes frequent (found in 8/10 patients analyzed)– Two had complex karyotypes with >5 chromosomes involved– Structural abnormalities were present in all, most frequently
involving ch. 12– Del (5q) and del (12p), abnormalities commonly associated
with MDS were each found in one patient
![Page 26: Case Presentation No. 075 - Indiana Universitypathol/HematopathologyWorkshop/login... · Case Presentation No. 075 Session 4. Myelodysplastic Syndrome Cristina Montalvo, MD Baylor](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042110/5e8a9ffb3e5d3175493b234b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Summary
• 64 y/o male with 2-mo history of symptoms– In the absence of a prior CBC, whether this represent acute onset
cannot definitely be ascertained• No splenomegaly• Pancytopenia with macrocytic anemia• Hypercellular, fibrotic marrow with distinct megakaryocytic
atypia and increased blasts• Multiple complex abnormalities on CG
• In conclusion, this case highlights an interesting constellation of findings infrequently encountered in the marrow. It also demonstrates some of the diagnostic difficulties faced by hematopathologists in separating MDS with fibrosis and APMF, entities which share numerous clinico-pathologic features.
