Overview

Myelofibrosis is subclassified into primary and secondary types with the primary type being the more common and a high proportion of the cases resulting from mutations in the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene. It can be secondary to a variety of malignant, non-malignant, and hematologic conditions. It can also be secondary to infections, toxins, and autoimmune diseases.

Classification

  • Myelofibrosis is divided into two types:
  • Primary
  • Secondary

Primary Myelofibrosis

  • The primary type, characterized by stem cell-derived clonal myeloproliferation, is often associated with mutations of the thrombopoietin receptor gene (MPL), the calreticulin (CALR) gene, or Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene with 90% of the patients carrying one of these mutations and the rest 10% are categorized as "triple-negative".[1][2]
  • The 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) revised classification of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) defines 2 stages of primary myelofibrosis (PMF):
  • Prefibrotic/early (pre-primary myelofibrosis) phase, characterized by granulocytic/megakaryocytic proliferation and lack of reticulin bone marrow fibrosis.[3][4]
  • Overtly fibrotic (overt primary myelofibrosis) phase, characterized by bone marrow fibrosis, pancytopenia, higher blast count, extramedullary hematopoiesis, and unfavorable karyotype with a significantly shortened median survival.[3]

Secondary Myelofibrosis

  • Myelofibrosis can be secondary to mulpltiple primary conditons such as:
  • Malignancies and hematologic disorders (Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, essential thrombocythemia, polycythemia vera, multiple myeloma, and malignancies with metastases to the bone)
  • Toxins (Benzene, thorium dioxide, and x- or γ-radiation)
  • Infections (Osteomyelitis, tuberculosis [TB])
  • Autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus [SLE], multiple sclerosis [MS])
