Myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematological stem cell disorders characterized by dysplasia, cytopenias, and increased risk of acute leukemia. As prognosis differs widely between patients, and treatment options vary from observation to allogeneic stem cell transplantation, accurate and precise disease risk prognostication is critical for decision making. With this aim, we retrieved registry data from MDS patients from 90 Spanish institutions.

Distinctive morphology of bone marrow erythroblasts and identification of causative genes allow classification into 4 types caused by variants in CDAN1, c15orf41, SEC23B, KIF23, and KLF1 genes.
Objective: Identify pathogenic variants in CDA patients.
