Résumé
Ring sideroblasts are commonly seen in myelodysplastic neoplasms and are a key condition for identifying distinct entities of myelodysplastic neoplasms according to the WHO classification. However, the presence of ring sideroblasts is not exclusive to myelodysplastic neoplasms. Ring sideroblasts are as well either encountered in non-clonal secondary acquired disorders, such as exposure to toxic substances, drug/medicine, copper deficiency, zinc overload, lead poison, or hereditary sideroblastic anemias related to X-linked, autosomal, or mitochondrial mutations. This review article will discuss diseases associated with ring sideroblasts outside the context of myelodysplastic neoplasms. Knowledge of the differential diagnoses characterized by the presence of ring sideroblasts in bone marrow is essential to prevent any misdiagnosis, which leads to delayed diagnosis and subsequent management of patients that differ in the different forms of sideroblastic anemia.
