Abdul Mannan Inside the Diagnostic Maze of Atypical CML
Abdul Mannan, Consultant Haematologist at Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, posted on LinkedIn:
”It’s rare. It’s aggressive. It mimics other blood cancers.
No Philadelphia chromosome. No targeted therapy. Just tough decisions.
Diagnosis needs sharp eyes. Dysplastic cells. High white counts. Molecular clues.
SETBP1 and ASXL1 mutations tell the story.
CSF3R points elsewhere.
Median survival? 14-30 months without transplant.
But here’s hope: Early recognition matters. Molecular testing guides us. Transplant can cure selected patients.
Every rare diagnosis teaches us something profound about blood biology.
As haematologists, we don’t just treat diseases. We solve puzzles that save lives.
What rare condition taught you the most?”
