title: Myelodysplasia in childhood.
abstract: Two simple statements can be given which reflect our helplessness with respect to myelodysplasia. MDS are rare in childhood, but features and course of disease resemble those in adults. JCMML should be considered as a pediatric subtype of MDS, but with a worse prognosis than CMML in adult patients.
