Abstract
2 patients with myelofibrosis and myeloid metaplasia had symptomatic splenomegaly and were treated with interferon alpha-2c (IFN alpha-2c). The splenic pain and pressure symptoms disappeared, accompanied by a decrease in the size of the spleen. However, the peripheral blood count worsened and no improvement in the bone marrow fibrosis could be observed.
