We will discuss the recent advances in the genomic characterization of pediatric AML and MDS. In particular, we will discuss the differences observed between these diseases in children and adults and how some subtypes of AML/MDS are enriched in different age groups. A commentary on how these pediatric lesions can be used to detect minimal residual disease or guide therapy will be included. Lastly, we will discuss recent work on different germline lesions found in pediatric AML and MDS.
