Abstract

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are uncommon in children and have poor prognosis. Here, the authors interrogate the genomic landscape of MDS, confirming adult and paediatric MDS are separate diseases with disparate mechanisms, and highlighting that SAMD9/SAMD9L mutations represent a new class of MDS predisposition.
