The World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues was last updated in 2008. The study of cancer genomes has identified inherited genetic drivers that predispose cancer cells to clonal evolution. The revisions in the categories of myeloid neoplasms and acute leukemia were published as a monograph in 2016. We described familial hematological malignancies using the 2016 edition of the WHO classification.
