A case of MDS/MPN overlap syndrome with ring sideroblasts and
thrombocytosis: Tackling the quandary of thrombosis versus hemorrhage.
Abstract
Myelodysplastic/ myeloproliferative overlap syndrome with ring
sideroblasts and thrombocytosis (MDS/MPN-RS-T) is a rare myeloid
neoplasm showing myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative features. With
extremely raised platelets, possibility of acquired Von Willebrand and
risk of hemorrhage is increased. With this quandary in mind, a
descriptive case and a discussion of available treatments ensues
