Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by peripheral blood monocytosis and bone marrow dysplasia. In approximately one-fourth of cases, CMML can demonstrate progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), referred to as AML ex CMML. We present a 58-year-old woman with a past medical history of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who demonstrated 24% bone marrow blasts on a repeat biopsy obtained two years after being diagnosed with CMML.

Chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) is a very rare myeloid neoplasm characterized by peripheral blood neutrophilia and a hypercellular marrow with increased granulopoiesis. An activating mutation in CSF3R is present in 80% to 90% of cases. CNL displays some biological overlap in terms of clinical presentation and behavior, as well as genetic profile, with several other myeloid neoplasms, particularly myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN) and other MPN.

Myeloid neoplasms include myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic neoplasms and acute myeloid leukaemia. Historically, these diseases have been diagnosed based on clinicopathological features with sometimes arbitrary thresholds that have persisted even as molecular features were gradually incorporated into their classification. As such, although current diagnostic approaches can classify the majority of myeloid neoplasms accurately using a combination of molecular and clinicopathological features, some areas of overlap persist and occasionally pose diagnostic challenges.

Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a serious complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), with limited data on its incidence and characteristics, particularly for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) of gastric origin. We aimed to evaluate the incidence, clinical, endoscopic, and histopathologic features, and outcomes of UGIB, with a focus on gastric vascular ectasias (GVEs) in patients undergoing HSCT with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY), sirolimus or calcineurin inhibitors, and mycophenolate mofetil. This retrospective, single-center study included all adult patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT at a single institution between January 2017 and December 2023.
