AbstractThe myeloproliferative disorders (MPDs) are clonal disorders of the hematopoietic stem cell and classified as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), or agnogenic myeloid metaplasia (AMM), depending on the main hematopoietic lineage involved. Primary renal parenchymal lesions are not commonly reported in these cases. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 138 consecutive patients with MPD to determine the frequency of renal parenchymal complications. Five patients (3.6%) (two PV, two ET, one AMM) were found to have focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and diffuse mesangial sclerosis, presenting as proteinuria in all the cases and progressing to chronic renal failure in two cases. A possible common risk factor was a high platelet count, because abnormal platelet activation in MPD has been shown to contribute to the development of glomerulosclerosis. The pathophysiologic basis of our observations and the implications in management of MPD patients remain to be studied.
