Magnetic resonance imaging in sclerotic-type chronic graft-vs-host disease.
BACKGROUND Sclerotic-type chronic graft-vs-host disease (cGVHD) of the skin is an uncommon but potentially debilitating sequela of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. There is no standardized assessment measure for this form of cGVHD. Because a full-thickness incisional biopsy specimen to the level of the fascia may be needed to make a definitive histologic diagnosis of cGVHD-re...

متن کاملNarrowband UV-B Phototherapy for Steroid-Refractory Sclerotic Chronic Cutaneous Graft-vs-Host Disease.
IMPORTANCE Chronic graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) affects 50% to 70% of patients who receive allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants (HCTs), and the skin is the most common site of involvement. Chronic cutaneous GVHD can present with sclerotic or nonsclerotic changes of the skin and often requires treatment with systemic immunosuppressants, extracorporeal photopheresis, or phototherapy. We desc...
متن کاملIsomorphic Sclerotic-Type Cutaneous Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease: Report and Review of Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease in a Cutaneous Immunocompromised District
BACKGROUND Patients who have received a hematopoietic cell transplantation can develop graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The liver, the gastrointestinal tract, and/or the skin can be affected by GVHD. Chronic sclerotic-type cutaneous GVHD can occur at sites of repetitive skin friction. PURPOSE To describe isomorphic sclerotic-type GVHD and review chronic GVHD appearing in a cutaneous immunoco...
