Myelofibrosis is classified as a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), which is a group of disorders characterized by the overproduction of blood cells. While not classified as leukemia itself, myelofibrosis can lead to secondary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in some patients. It primarily affects the bone marrow, leading to fibrosis and impaired blood cell production, which can result in anemia, splenomegaly, and other complications. Thus, myelofibrosis is related to leukemia but is distinct in its classification.
