Chronic myeloproliferative diseases (CMPD) are clonal disorders with excess proliferation (cell production) of one or more lineages of hematopoiesis. The most common CMPDs are polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis and idiopathic primary myelofibrosis. Specific molecular abnormalities were found that are characteristic for these disorders. The most common of them is mutation of gene Janus kinase 2 (Jak2 V617F).

Key words: chronic myeloproliferative diseases, polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, idiopathic primary myelofibrosis, mutation Jak2 V617F.
