WHO-HAEM5

The main changes to the WHO classifications of haematological malignancy (WHO-HAEM5) have been published ahead of publication of the ‘Blue Book’ later this year. This is going to cause discrepancies throughout the site as I gradually update nomenclature and WHO tables. It could take some time!

Meanwhile, here are links to the WHO-HAEM5 articles:

Myeloid

Lymphoid

And a few highlights to whet your appetite:

  • B-PLL is out and in the bin. Cases under that diagnosis are now redistributed based on their other features.

  • Atypical CML is now MDS/MPN with neutrophila

Thank you to everyone who has visited the site or recommended it to a friend over the last two years, it has been so satisfying to see the visits climb! Recent updates include the addition of a page on viscoelastic testing and the number of MCQ questions passing 50!
