Chronic neutrophilic leukemia historical perspective
Introduction
Overview
Overview
Chronic neutrophilic leukemia(CNL) was first presented by Tuohy, in a case of splenomegaly and neutrophilic leukocytosis, in 1920. Although, It was named by Tanzer et al, in 1964. WHO introduced the criteria for the diagnosis of this disease as a myeloproliferative disorder in 2001. In 2013, CSF3R (colony stimulating factor 3 receptor) mutations was proposed that was found in the most CNL patients and made a huge change in diagnosis and treatment of this patient.

Discovery
- In 1920, Tuohy described the first case of CNL with severe splenomegaly and neutrophilic leukocytosis as a unique disease. However, it was named for the fist time as CNL by Tanzer et al, in 1964.[1][2]
- In 2001, WHO introduced the criteria for diagnosis CNL as a myeloproliferative disorder that was revised in 2016.[3]
- In 2013, CSF3R (colony stimulating factor 3 receptor) mutations was proposed that was found in the most CNL patients.[4]
