    Author: Ruchlemer R, Mittelman M, Zimran A.
    Journal: Blood Cells Mol Dis; 2020 Feb; 80():102373. PubMed ID: 31718920.
    Abstract:
    Gaucher disease is an inherited lysosomal storage disease commonly associated with hepatosplenomegaly and cytopenias. Progressive cytopenias may be interpreted as an indication of advanced disease and suggest the need to start Gaucher disease specific treatment. As bone marrow evaluation is not routinely performed in Gaucher disease, other causes of cytopenias such as myelodysplastic syndrome a stem cell disorder may be missed. Six patients are described who suffered simultaneously from Gaucher disease and myelodysplastic syndrome, with a discussion of the diagnostic challenges.
