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.

Am J Hematol. 1992;39(2):131-6.
Here we extend observations on the occurrence of erythromelalgia in thrombocythemia associated with primary myelofibrosis, Philadelphia-chromosome positive micromegakaryocytic myelofibrosis, and myelodysplastic syndrome type II.

Erythromelalgia, which is specific for primary thrombocythaemia or polycythaemia with thrombocythaemia, is reported in a case of primary myelofibrosis at platelet counts of between 350 and 450 X 10(9)/l.
