Abstract

Myeloproliferative diseases (MPD) comprise a group of clonal pathology resulting from genetic alterations at a stem cell level. WHO (2008) divides MPD into several “classical” forms – polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytemia, and primary myelofibrosis. Haemorheologic and haemostatic disturbances have been widely accepted as a significant (in some cases – primary) cause of acute and/or chronic cerebrovascular disease. A pre-existing MPD may potentiate and accelerate the development of circulatory alterations, including those occurring in the brain tissue, leading to ischemic stroke. The present article comprises a literature review on this uncommon pathology, as well as a clinical presentation of a stroke case in a patient with underlying MPD (Vaquez’ disease).
