Rare Inherited Bone Marrow Failure Syndromes
- Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome
A group of rare conditions linked to genes such as DNAJC21, MYSM1 and SRP72, and to combined ADH5 and ALDH2 deficiency (AMED syndrome), causing low blood counts, sometimes with developmental or other features.
- 1 GenCC submitter rates it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
A diagnosis informs the choice of related stem cell donors and transplant preparation, and supports monitoring for myelodysplastic syndrome and leukaemia.
