Nicole Kucine, MD, MS, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, NY, summarizes her talk on myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in pediatric and adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients. Dr Kucine highlights that essential thrombocythemia (ET) is the most common MPN in pediatric patients and that triple-negative MPNs are more frequent in younger patients than their adult counterparts. The talk also covered other important aspects, such as the risk of thrombosis, disease transformation, and considerations for treatment. Dr Kucine also emphasizes the need to educate clinicians on the transition from pediatric to adult care, outlining some key considerations. This interview took place at the 1st Annual MPN Workshop of the Carolinas in Asheville, NC.
