Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are hematologic disorders characterised by peripheral cytopenias and the hystologic features of hematologic dysplasia. Their association with autoimmune manifestations have been suggested by several authors: recently, the appearance of Behçet's disease during MDS has been reported. We describe the occurrence of MDS in a patient affected by Behçet's syndrome with gastrointestinal involvement and congenital panhypopituitarism.
