Abstract

The advances and progress in the understanding and management of acute leukemia and myelodysplasia continue to occur at an exponential rate. While this has led to more therapy options, clinicians and researchers are now facing more challenges in terms of clinical decision-making and more unanswered questions. This paper has outlined some conundrums in acute leukemia and myelodysplasia, and the efforts that are underway to address these.
