Evaluación sistemática de la biopsia de médula ósea en casos de sospecha de mielofibrosis primaria. Propuesta de informe diagnóstico estandarizado. Consenso de expertos de las SEAP/SEHH

A consensus based on Delphi methodology was developed to produce a guide for the evaluation and reporting of bone marrow biopsies in patients with a clinical suspicion of myeloproliferative neoplasm with fibrosis. Ten expert haematopathologists formulated a questionnaire including: clinical and laboratory data required before regarding a biopsy suspicious for primary myelofibrosis (PMF), descriptive aspects to be reported and the main histopathological differential diagnoses to be considered. It was circulated among 37 hematopathologists and consensus was defined when more than 70% of the experts “strongly agreed” or “agreed” after two rounds. The recommendations gave rise to a proposal for a standardized diagnostic report form to aid in the diagnostic workup and homogeneous reporting of cases with a clinical suspicion of PMF.
