Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a heterogeneous group of hematologic malignancies characterized by an abnormal proliferation of cells of the myeloid lineage. Affected individuals are at increased risk for cardiovascular and thrombotic events. Myocardial infarction (MI) may be one of the earliest clinical manifestations of MPNs or may be a thrombotic complication that develops during the natural course of the disease. In the present review, we examine the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and management of MI in MPNs based on the available literature. Moreover, we review potential biomarkers that could mediate the MI-MPNs crosstalk, from classical biochemical tests, e.g. , lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase and troponins, to pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress markers, and clonal hematopoiesis.
