Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) is a major complication after stem cell transplantation, causing significant morbidity and mortality. This review details GvHD

Area of Science:

  • Hematology
  • Immunology
  • Oncology

Context:

  • Stem cell transplantation is a critical treatment for hematologic malignancies.
  • Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) significantly increases morbidity and mortality post-transplantation.
  • GvHD presents as acute or chronic forms with diverse clinical manifestations.

Purpose:

  • To review the cutaneous manifestations of GvHD.
  • To discuss histopathologic features, prophylaxis, and therapy for acute and chronic GvHD.
  • To provide an overview based on recent literature.

Summary:

  • GvHD is a primary complication of stem cell transplantation, affecting up to 50% of recipients.
  • Cutaneous GvHD presents with varied symptoms, often mimicking other conditions, complicating early diagnosis.
