DIAGNOSTIC APPLICATION AND CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF FCM WELLS SCORING SYSTEM IN MYELODYSPLASTIC SYNDROMES
Objective: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are group of clonal diseases of the hematopoietic system characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, dysmyelopoiesis, a high frequency karyotype abnormalities and the risk of transformation into acute leukemias. Cytopenic and dysplastic changes are not pa...

Cytopenic and dysplastic changes are not pathognomonic for MDS, and there are many diseases that can imitate MDS. According to various sources, clonal karyotypic abnormalities are present only in 20-60% of MDS. The diagnosis of MDS is not difficult if blasts or sideroblasts are present in the bone marrow, or there are chromosomal aberrations as evidence of clonal hematopoiesis. The diagnostic problem arises in cases of MDS without sideroblasts, with normal karyotype and/or bone marrow hypoplasia. Since 2012, the ELNet Working Group has proposed and subsequently supplemented guidelines for Flow Cytometry as a complementary diagnostic tool. The aim of the study was to compare the results of the FCM Wells score MDS with the results of the İPSS-R score MDS Methodology: The study included 30 patients initially diagnosed with MDS . The classification was carried out according to the WHO Classification of MDS 2016: MDS SLD-6 (20%), MDS-MLD-5 (16.7%), MDS RS-MLD-2 (6.7%), MDS-EB1-9 (30%), MDS EB2-8(27%). According to the IPPS-R, patients were scored based on blasts, cytogenetic examination, hemoglobin/platelet/absolute neutrophil count and scored as very-low, low, intermediate, high, very-high. Results: Using the Wells evaluation criteria, which takes into account cytometric analysis of the cells of the main myelopoiesis lines, changes were found in the compartment of granulocytes in 93%, monocytes in 40% and erythrocytes in 73% of cases. High scores on the Wells scale (> 4) were obtained in 89% of (8/9) MDS-EB1, 100%(8/8) MDS-EB2, 80% (4/5) MDS MLD patients, 17% (1/6) MDS –SLD, 50%(1/2) MDS RS-MLD. According to IPPS-R, MDS patients received a score <1.5 very low risk group include 50%(3/6) MDS –SLD, 20%(1/5) MDS-MLD, score > 1.5-3 - Low risk group include MDS –SLD 50%(3/ 6), MDS-MLD-80% (4/5), MDS RS-MLD 50% (1/2), MDS-EB1-78%(7/ 9), score > 3- 4.5-intermediate risk qroup got MDS-EB1 22%(2/ 9), MDS EB2- 25% (2/8), MDS RS-MLD- 50%(1/2), Score > 4.5 respectively high risk group got patients MDS –SLD- 17%(1/6), MDS EB2- 50%(4/8), Score > 6 very high risk group got MDS EB2- 25%(2/8). The Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) showed high correlation between İPSS-R and FCM Wells score was 0.83, p<0.002. Conclusion: In our study, the FCM score had a positive correlation with the IPSS-R prediction.
