Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a severe monogenic hereditary hemoglobinopathy that is characterized by repeated clinical and biological manifestations able to generate stress erythopoiesis. A clonal hematopoiesis involving mainly variants of TP53 , DNMT3A , ASXL1 , and/or TET2 may be more prevalent in patients with SCD, suggesting that mutations in these genes may lead to an increased risk of leukemia. An increased prevalence of leukemia in patients with SCD has been confirmed by an increasing number of acute myeloid leukemia cases with myelodysplastic features reported in this patient population even in the absence of disease-modifying treatments. This leads to the hypothesis of a mechanism involving multifactorial causes through the pathophysiologic manifestations of SCD, in which cells are undergoing constant hematopoietic hyperplasia, inducing genomic damage and somatic mutations.
