Crohn disease (CD) is rare, but the incidence of CD has been increasing over the past ten years. We found two cases of CD, associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), for the first time in children. In the first patient, MDS was diagnosed at three years of age and CD developed later at eight years of age. The patient presented with...

Isolated relapse of myeloid leukemia as a granulocytic sarcoma(GS) following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation(BMT) is very rare manifestation, and usually associated with a poor prognosis. We report a case of isolated intracranial GS in an infant with myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS) following unrelated BMT. A 7 month-old girl was diagnosed with refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB). During observation for a couple...

Jin Lee, Soh Yeon Kim, Bin Cho, Pil Sang Jang, Nak Gyun Chung, Hack Ki Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(3):370-375.   Published online March 15, 2002
Purpose : In most cases, myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS) transforms into a more aggressive state or acute myelogenous leukemia; it's prognosis is very poor. It is believed that hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT) is the only curative treatment of MDS, but available data in children are very sparse. In this report, the short term outcome of HSCT in childhood MDS was analyzed. Methods :...

Myelodysplastic syndrome is a heterogeneous disease complex which is basically a clonal disorder and has characteristics of cytopenia of one or more cell series in peripheral blood and of dyspoiesis of precurosirs in bone marrow. Since the nature of this disease in childhooh is very different from that in adults, retrospective clinical study was performed with 17 confirmed patients who...

We have experienced a case of myelodysplastic syndrome (RAEB) in an 11-year-old boy with the complaints of pallor and petechiae for 1 month. After diagnosis, improvement was remarkable with chemotherapy of low dose cytosine arabinoside but the RAEB was transformed to acute myeloblastic leukemia 4 months after treatmemt. Anti-leukemic therapy was tried but induction of remission was failed and he was died of sepsis...

Myelodysplastic syndrome is a disorder of the marrow stem cell characterized initially by ineffective erythropoiesis, an abnormal bone marrow, and peripheral blood cytopjenia. Recently MDS was classified into 5 subtypes by the F rench-American-British (FAB) Cooperative Group: (1) Refractory anemia(R.A.), (2) RA with ring sideroblast, (3) RA with excess of blast(RAEB), (4) Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) and (5) RAEB in transformation.
