This high-risk MDS has the potential to evolve further, transitioning to secondary AML in approximately 30% of cases.

AML, as a progression of MDS, can lead to fatal outcomes in many patients.

However, it is worth noting that mortality in MDS patients is not solely attributed to AML.

In fact, bleeding and infections are also common causes of death in MDS patients, even without the development of AML.
