Aims Renal changes in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/MPNs have been addressed by few, respectively no, reports. The aim of this study was to focus on a systematic evaluation of renal biopsies in patients with MPNs or MDS/MPNs. Methods and results The cohort comprised 29 patients (23 men) aged 67 ± 11 years (mean ± standard deviation), diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukaemia (n = 5), polycythaemia vera (n = 9), primary myelofibrosis (n = 5), essential thrombocythaemia (n = 2), or chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (n = 4), as well as MPNs or MDS/MPNs not otherwise specified (n = 4).
