Abstract

The development of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) secondary to treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a common finding. In the literature we found some cases diagnosed with MDS and NHL simultaneously, other cases were first diagnosed as MDS with low risk IPSS and were managed only with an observational program and then they developed NHL later on with interval ranging from 5 month to 4 years. T-cell lymphoma has a higher incidence of coexistence with MDS compared to B-NHL. We are presenting a case of co-existing de novo myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) prior to therapy diagnosed by bone marrow aspiration, bone marrow trephine biopsy, immunophenotyping and immunohistochemistry.
