摘 要:To the Editor: The presence of FIP-1-like-1-platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α (FIP1L1-PDGFRA, F/P) fusion gene accounts for approximately 23% (3%-56%) of all eosinophilias.[1] From 2008, the World Health Organization (WHO) classification redefined this disease as myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and PDGFRA rearrangement, now constituting a distinct type of hematopoietic disorders. F/P fusion is a tyrosine kinase and is therefore sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
