“…These symptoms are known to be common in patients with PV. 24,25 Pruritus was not found to be exclusively associated with PV. Since PV is associated with pruritus and erythromelalgia, this was an unexpected finding that may have been mitigated by length of time with MPN and/or adequate treatments.…”

Background Patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) can have severe physical symptom burden over an extended disease trajectory that contributes to decreased quality of life. Few studies, however, have characterized for which MPN patients physical symptoms are most frequently considered a problem. As such, this study describes MPN patients' physical symptoms and their relationship with patient characteristics. Methods Patients (N=117) with MPNs completed questionnaires in a dedicated academic medical center MPN clinic. Patients reported demographics (age, race/ethnicity, gender, marital status, employment status) and disease characteristics (MPN type, time with MPN). Patients reported whether they were bothered by any of 22 Physical Problem List variables from the Distress Thermometer and Problem List (DT&PL). Results The median number of physical problems endorsed by patients was 2 (M=2.26, SD=3.18) with a range from 0 to 20. Two-fifths endorsed no physical problems, one-fifth endorsed one problem, and two-fifths endorsed 2 or more problems. Fatigue (35.5%), sleep (27.1%), pain (21.5%), dry skin/pruritus (18.7%), and memory/concentration (16.8%) were the most commonly reported. Non-Caucasian participants reported more problems with sleep (p=.050), pain (p=.016), and tingling (p=.026). Polycythemia vera (PV) patients reported more issues with tingling (p=.046) and sexual problems (p=.032). Conclusion It is more likely among patients with MPN to report physical symptom bother than to report no bother with multiple physical problems on the DT&PL. Patients of minority race/ethnicity and those with PV, however, showed heightened prevalence of physical problems, characteristics which may be used to triage patients for more intensive symptom management.

“…The occurrence of the erectile dysfunction during essential polyglobulia is explained by microthromboses; vascular thromboses are known to arise during polycythemia vera, and involve all tissue territories and could be arterial or venous [2]. Although mostly partial, the cavernous body thromboses might contribute to complicate the polycythemia vera [3-5]. …”

IntroductionPolycythemia vera is a polyglobular myeloproliferative syndrome related to the mutation of multipotent hemopoietic stem cells. This case report describes a patient whose bladder tumor was associated with polycythemia vera and erectile dysfunction. The association of bladder neoplasia with polycythemia vera and erectile dysfunction has not previously been reported in the literature.Case presentationA 40-year-old Moroccan man was followed up for a bladder tumor which manifested with coagulant hematuria and a facial erythrosis with a hemoglobin level of 20.3g/L suggesting polycythemia vera. The patient also suffered from an erectile disorder. Considering the anesthesia difficulty due to polyglobulia, the patient was treated by bleeding. This treatment enabled the patient’s sexual performance to be improved and adjustment of his hemoglobin to a level allowing anesthesia, and hence surgical resection of his bladder tumor.ConclusionErectile dysfunction associated with polycythemia vera is elucidated by rheological disorders. Bleeding contributed to satisfactory sexual performance and facilitated treatment of polycythemia vera because it enabled anesthesia to be performed and hence the surgical resection of the bladder tumor.
