Myelodysplastic syndrome: A group of bone marrow disorders characterized by the underproduction of one or more types of blood cells due to dysfuntion of the marrow.

The myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) may arise de novo (newly) or be

secondary to treatment with chemotherapy or radiation therapy for

another disease. De novo myelodysplasia usually has a better prognosis than does secondary myelodysplasia. MDS is characterized by low red blood cells (anemia), low white blood cell count (leukopenia) with a tendency to infection, and low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) with bleeding problems. MDS may progress and transform into acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). The 7 recognized types of MDS are refractory anemia,

refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts, refractory anemia with

excess blasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation,

chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia in

transformation, and unclassified myelodysplastic syndrome. The survival rates range from six months to a number of years

for the different subtypes of MDS. Death is usually due to bleeding or

infection. Transformation to AML occurs in up to 40% of patients and

carries a poor prognosis. Supportive care has traditionally been the mainstay of treatment. This includes the judicious use of platelet

and blood transfusions. Vidaza (azacitidine) is the first drug approved

(in 2004) for treating MDS. It causes demethylation or hypomethylation

of DNA in abnormal blood-forming (hematopoietic) cells in the marrow and also has a direct cytotoxic effect. The highest prevalence of MDS is in people over 60 years of age. About 10,000 to 30,000 new cases of MDS are diagnosed annually in the US.It is possible for ur child to come out of problem, pls call on my cell on any day HARESH(HARRY)NATHANI VEDIC ASTROLOGER CELL +91 9867214103Send your mails to Chandra-AdityaAstroRemediesSubscribe on this link http://in.Chandra-AdityaAstroRemediesFor Professional Paid Consultancy mail request for charges toharesh1405/hareshgnathani or call +91 9867214103 schirag1 <schirag1 Sent: Saturday, 8 August, 2009 8:49:33 AM Rare medical condition
