High-grade myelodysplastic syndrome in a pediatric multi-organ transplant recipient: A case report and literature review.

This case emphasizes the importance of early recognition of myelodysplastic syndrome in multi-organ transplant recipients on chronic immunosuppression. Pancytopenia is a common presentation in the post-transplant period that requires thorough investigation. Multiple confounding considerations such as infection, immunosuppression, and systemic inflammation can delay the diagnosis of underlying hematological malignancies. Transplant care providers should be aware of myelodysplastic syndrome and advocate for a comprehensive evaluation, given early recognition and intervention can significantly improve outcomes.
