General Information of Disease (ID: DISDOU6F)

Disease Name GATA2 deficiency with susceptibility to MDS/AML
Synonyms GATA2 deficiency/MonoMac syndrome; GATA2 deficiency; GATA2 deficiency with susceptibility to MDS/AML
Definition
A disorder arising from deficiency in the GATA2 with a wide spectrum of phenotypes. Autosomal dominant mutations of GATA2 cause a haploinsufficiency, which, in consequence, cause individuals to develop hematological, immunological, lymphatic, or other presentations. These often progress to severe organ (e.g. lung) failure, opportunistic infections, myelodysplastic syndrome, and/or acute myeloid leukemia. The most common clinical denominator is the propensity for myeloid neoplasia (myelodysplastic syndrome [MDS], myeloproliferative neoplasms [MPN], chronic myelomonocytic leukemia [CMML], acute myeloid leukemia [AML]).|The most penetrant phenotype among all of the GATA2 related disease entities (MonoMAC, Emberger Syndrome, familial MDS/AML) is myeloid neoplasia; due to the absence of clearly defined and/or distinct differences in molecular mechanism (haploinsufficiency), coupled with noted phenotypic variability (both intra- and inter-familial) these entities appear to be part of a broader disease entity
