Overview

Cohort study shows high AML and SMF progression rates in essential thrombocythemia, suggesting vascular complications relate to genetic mutations.

Key Points

  • This research examines the clinical characteristics, disease progression, and vascular events in patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET).
  • Retrospective review of 90 ET patients diagnosed before 2015
  • Collected data on clinical, laboratory, and genetic factors
  • Guided by WHO 2022 criteria for ET diagnosis
  • 11 patients progressed to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after median 14.8 years
  • 40 patients progressed to secondary myelofibrosis (SMF) after median 13.5 years
  • Genetic mutations were associated with disease progression; vascular complications occurred in 37% of patients.
