The MPNs are a related group of blood stem cell disorders, most commonly polycythemia vera, essential thrombocythemia, primary myelofibrosis, myeloid metaplasia, and chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), but also including chronic eosinophilias (hypereosinophilic syndromes), mast cell disorders (systemic mastocytosis), chronic neutrophilic leukemia, overlap states between MPNs and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and not infrequently currently unclassifiable MPNs.

Under the leadership of Andrew I. Schafer, M.D., the Richard T. Silver MPN Center offers the most advanced, comprehensive care for patients with MPNs. It also provides for consultations, second opinions, or co-management of patients with MPNs with physicians outside Weill Cornell Medicine.
