Myeloproliferative neoplasms - MPNs - are a group of rare malignant blood cancers. Common forms of MPN include essential thrombocythemia (ET), polycythemia vera (PV), primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

Patient information on these diseases can be found on the homepage of the "German Study Group for Myeloproliferative Neoplasias (GSG-MPN)" under the heading "Information".
