Abstract

Background: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) comprises a group of clonal myeloid neoplasms characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, chronic cytopenias, and the potential for transformation to acute myeloid leukaemia . Environmental factors such as toxins, drugs, and infections can mimic dysplasia or exert selective pressure on mutated haematopoietic stem cells; however, persistent bone‑marrow failure after eradication of infection is uncommon.
