| Abstract: | The nonleukemic chronic myeloproliferative disorders, polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, and myeloid metaplasia with myelofibrosis, are clonal disorders with similar but distinct clinical and laboratory findings. This review will discuss the diagnostic criteria for each disease, the variable clinical picture, and the therapeutic modalities, actual and theoretical. |
