Overview
If left untreated, patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm may progress to develop weight loss, fever, and night sweats. Common complications of myeloproliferative neoplasm include splenomegaly, bleeding, and thrombosis. Prognosis is generally good with treatment, and the 3-year survival rate of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm is approximately 35%.[1][2]
Natural History
The symptoms of myeloproliferative neoplasm usually develop in the sixth decade of life, and start with symptoms such as anorexia, weigh loss, and fatigue. Without treatment, the patient will develop symptoms of fever, abdominal pain, and bruising which may eventually lead to death.[1][2]
Complications
Myeloproliferative neoplasm may lead to the following complications:[3][2]
- Spleen
- Fatigue
- Anemia
- Weight loss
- Leukocytosis
Prognosis
The prognosis of Myeloproliferative neoplasm is good with treatment. Without treatment, Myeloproliferative neoplasm may result in death. The 5- and 10-year survival rates for myeloproliferative neoplasm are 74% to 93% and 61% to 84%, respectively.
