MDS
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are diseases of the blood cells and bone marrow. MDS are a collection of myeloid malignancies characterized by one or more peripheral blood cytopenias. Subtypes of this heterogeneous group of disorders occur when blood-forming cells in the bone marrow become abnormal. Sometimes, MDS precedes acute myeloid leukemia.
