Polycythemia vera

Polycythemia vera (PV) is an acquired myeloproliferative disorder characterized by an elevated absolute red blood cell mass caused by uncontrolled red blood cell production, frequently associated with uncontrolled white blood cell and platelet production.

We suggest that at least some cases of polycythemia vera may have an unstable hematopoietic stem cell pool in nature, which could contribute to the development of unprovoked cyclic thrombocytopenia.

Cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow cells of a 63-year-old male Caucasian patient with polycythemia vera (PV) who developed anemia, thrombocytopenia, and increased granulocytic immaturity revealed a 47, X, der(Y) t(Y;1)(q12;q12),+9 karyotype.
