What Cytogenetic Category
I was diagnosed with MDS (RCMD) in October of 2014. My bone marrow biopsy at that time indicated my cytogenetics as 46,XY,t(7;18)(q11.2;q12.2)[2]/46,XY[19]. A bone marrow biopsy in May of this year indicated my cytogenetics as 46,XY,del(7)(q22)[3]/46,XY[17]. With regard to the International Prognostic Scoring System, Revised (IPPS-R), is my cytogenetic category now based on having both chromosome abnormalities (t(7;18)(q11.2;q12.2) and del(7)(q22)) or just the most recent biopsy?
Thanks
