We present a case of chronic graft-versus-host disease in a 61-year-old woman with a history of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia that was treated with an allogeneic bone marrow transplant from an unrelated donor. The patient initially presented with erythematous patches on the trunk and extremities that evolved into reticulated, hyperpigmented ...

Rehabilitation in Children With Sclerodermoid Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease: Case Series [PDF]
Joint contracture in chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is refractory to treatment, and tends to deteriorate gradually over time. There is scant clinical research focusing on timing and intensity of rehabilitation on joint contractures in children

Prevention of graft-vs.-host disease [PDF]
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative treatment for many malignant and non-malignant hematologic disorders. However, graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) remains a major complication of allogeneic HCT and limits the success of this approach.This paper reviews recent developments in the prevention of acute and chronic GVHD.
