- Abstract
CMML is a rare clonal myeloid neoplasm belonging to the myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) group characterized by persistent peripheral blood monocytosis. It is commonly seen in old age and has a varied clinical presentation. A critical morphological identification and distinction between monocyte precursors is very crucial for accurate morphological diagnosis and classification of MDS/MPN disorders in particular at centers lacking facilities for molecular and cytogenetic studies. We, therefore, present a rare case of a 5-year-old male diagnosed with CMML-2.
