Abstract
Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a malignant hematologic disorder tha t may present with clinical features consistent with the diagnosis of severe aplastic anemia (SAA). Distinguishing the two disorders may dep end on the presence of a clonal chromosomal abnormality. In the follow ing, we report a case of MDS associated with what we believe to be a p reviously unreported clonal abnormality of chromosome 1q, a finding th at enabled us to distinguish between MDS and SAA.
