Primary myelofibrosis

A rare myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by stem-cell derived clonal over proliferation of mature myeloid lineages, such as erythrocytes, leukocytes, and megakaryocytes, with variable degrees of megakaryocyte atypia, associated with reticulin and/or collagen bone marrow fibrosis, osteosclerosis, ineffective erythropoiesis, angiogenesis, extramedullary hematopoiesis, and abnormal cytokine expression.

Rheumatoid arthritis

Inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures with widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues, as well as atrophy and rarefaction of bony structures.

	Reversal of transfusion dependence by tumor necrosis factor inhibitor treatment in a patient with concurrent rheumatoid arthritis and primary myelofibrosis.
	Ong A, Quach H, Leech M. J Clin Rheumatol. 2011;17(4):211-3.
	We report a patient with seropositive rheumatoid arthritis with concurrent primary myelofibrosis, who had transfusion-dependent anemia and moderate thrombocytopenia that reversed during treatment with adalimumab.

	Pyoderma gangrenosum with myelofibrosis.
	Kanel KT, Kroboth FJ, Swartz WM. Am J Med. 1987;82(5):1031-4.
	Although pyoderma gangrenosum is more commonly associated with inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis, this is the fifth reported case of its coexistence with idiopathic myelofibrosis.

	Nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver in hematologic disorders: a possible response to obliterative portal venopathy. A morphometric study of nine cases with an hypothesis on the pathogenesis.
	Wanless IR, Godwin TA, Allen F, Feder A. Medicine (Baltimore). 1980;59(5):367-79.
	Nodular regenerative hyperplasia was found in nine patients who had hematological disease including polycythemia vera, agnogenic myeloid metaplasia, primary thrombocythemia, rheumatoid arthritis with thrombocytosis, multiple myeloma, and erythrocytosis associated with polycystic renal disease.
