Jae Eun Lee, Seung Woo Baeck, Wan Seob Kim, Chun Hee Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(1):128-132.   Published online January 15, 1999
Individuals with Down syndrome have a high incidence of hematologic diseases such as transient myeloproliferative disorder(TMD) & acute leukemia. Because it is difficult to distinguish TMD from acute myeloblastic leukemia, the diagnosis in neonate, who have Down syndrome, should be made with extreme caution. TMD usually undergoes spontaneous remission within a few months, but acute leukemia can develope after remission...

Transient myeloproliferative disorder has been reported in infants with Down’s syndrome. This disorder is clinically and hematologically indistinguishable from congenital leukemia. In contrast to congenital leukemia, complete clinical and hematological recovery occurs within weeks to months of diagnosis without antileukemic treatment. We experienced a case of Transient myeloproliferative disorder with Down’s syndrome. This 4-day-old female neonate showed jaundice, hepatomegaly, fever, dyspnea, mongoloid face and congenital heart...

Children with Down syndrome have an increased incidence of acute leukemia. Infants with Down syndrome are also at risk of developing a transient myeloproliferative disorder indistinguishable from acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) except by its eventual clinical recovery. We observed 11 patients with acute leukemia or transient myeloproliferative disorder in Down syndrome who had admitted to the Departmetn of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Children’s Hospital,...

Transient myeloproliferative disorder has been reported in infant with Down's syndrome during neonatal period. This is clinically and hematologically indistinguishable from congenital acute leukemia. In contrast to congenital leukemia, complete clinical and hematological recovery occurs within weeks to months of diagnosis without antileukemic treatment. A neonate presented with jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly and mongoloid face was diagnosed as Transient myeloproliferative disorder. We report this case with a review of...

Transient myeloproliferative disorder has been reported in infants with Down syndrome. Infants with Down syndrome and this transient myeloproliferative disorder often present with signs and symptoms that are clinically and hematologically indistinguishable from congenital acute myelogenous leukemia. In contrast to congenital AML, complete clinical and hematological recovery occurs within weeks to months of diagnosis without any specific anti- leukemic treatment. A case of transient myeloproliferative disorder...
