Abstract
The landscape of haematological malignancies is constantly evolving, driven by advances in our understanding of their genetic basis. This has cumulated within the 5th Edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours published in short form in 2022 [1, 2] and being available in full length both as “Blue Book” (in print expected early 2024) as well as web-based classification (see: https://tumourclassification.iarc.who.int/welcome/). Similarly, the importance of genetic alterations for the classification is highlighted in other classification systems related to haematologic neoplasms [3–5]. In this special issue of the Medizinische Genetik, we present a comprehensive overview of the genetic alterations contributing to the classification of haematolymphoid neoplasms in the 5th Edition of the WHO classification (WHO-HAEM5) and its diagnostic relevance in the context of various haematological malignancies.
期刊介绍：
medizinischegenetik is a scientific journal that is owned and published by the German Society of Human Genetics e.V. since 1989. The journal was founded by Prof. Jan Murken, München. Self-published until 2006, from 2007-2019 published at Springer Verlag and since 2020 at De Gruyter.
medizinischegenetik serves education and training among colleagues, the interdisciplinary exchange of knowledge in all areas of human genetics in clinics, practice, research and teaching. Each issue of the quarterly journal deals with a focus that provides a comprehensive overview of current developments in specific clinical pictures, technical developments and therapeutic approaches. All reviews are written in English language. The journal thus creates a platform for the international exchange of knowledge and increased awareness of German research activities in the scientific community.
In addition, medizinischegenetik contains information on activities in its own subject in the German-language section. This includes conference reports, association announcements, personnel matters, statements and guidelines. With health policy questions, historical retrospectives and comments on current developments, the profession takes a stand on human genetic issues in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
