Overview

Myelofibrosis is most commonly caused by somatic mutations in the myeloproliferative leukemia virus (MPL) oncogene, the calreticulin (CALR) gene, or Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene. Less common mutations in other genes have also been documented. It can also be the result of other primary disorders manifesting as a complication or part of the disease process. Infections, malignancies, hematologic disorders, autoimmune diseases and exposure to certain toxins can also cause myelofibrosis.

Causes

Life-threatening Causes

There are no life-threatening causes of myelofibrosis, however complications resulting from untreated myelofibrosis is common.

Common Causes

Common causes of myelofibrosis include:

  • Genetic mutations in:
