Acute gastric variceal bleeding is a rare but serious complication of portal hypertension. Initial therapy for bleeding gastric varices focuses on acute hemostasis. In this regard, endoscopic cyanoacrylate injection (ECI) is the first-line approach.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are chronic hematological disorders marked by the abnormal proliferation of bone marrow cells. The most commonly encountered forms are polycythemia vera (PV), primary myelofibrosis (PMF), and essential thrombocythemia (ET). These disorders are generally associated with increases in blood components, which can lead to conditions like splenomegaly, thrombosis, bleeding tendencies, and a heightened risk of progressing to acute leukemia.

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder characterized by increased red blood cell mass, leading to a heightened risk for thrombosis and hemorrhage. While thrombotic complications such as stroke, deep vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism are commonly associated with PV, coronary artery syndromes, as the initial presentation, are rare. Here, we present the case of a 73-year-old male who presented with severe chest pain and was diagnosed with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

Background: Myeloid sarcoma (MS), a rare extramedullary tumor composed of myeloid blast cells, is classified by the World Health Organization as a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Isolated, primary, or nonleukemic MS has an incidence of 2/1,000,000 adults and constitutes only 0.7% of all AML cases.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms, polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, and primary myelofibrosis are a unique group of clonal hematopoietic stem cell neoplasms that share somatic, gain-in-function driver mutations in 2, , and . As a consequence, these disorders exhibit similar phenotypic features, the most common of which are the ceaseless production of normal erythrocytes, myeloid cells, platelets alone or in combination, extramedullary hematopoiesis, myelofibrosis, and a potential for leukemic transformation. In the case of polycythemia vera and essential thrombocytosis, however, prolonged survival is possible.
