Novel Detection of CALR-Mutated Cells in Myeloproliferative Neoplasm-Related Glomerulopathy With Interstitial Extramedullary Hematopoiesis: A Case Report
Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are associated with somatic mutations of genes including JAK2, CALR, or MPL in hematopoietic stem cells. Various glomerular lesions are known to be involved in MPN-related glomerulopathy, including mesangial hypercellularity, segmental sclerosis, features of chronic thrombotic microangiopathy, and intracapillary hematopoietic cell infiltration. Renal extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is uncommon, but it is reported to occur in the setting of MPN; however, to our knowledge, there have been no reports of renal EMH with pathologically verified mutations.
