Acute graft-versus-host disease
Doença do enxerto versus hospedeiro aguda
CategoryDefinition
Graft-versus-host disease presenting normally within the first 100 days of engraftment. It presents most commonly with a maculopapular rash accompanied by fever. The prognosis correlates with the extent of skin involvement, which may progress to widespread epidermal necrolysis, and the severity of gastrointestinal and liver involvement which may manifest as diarrhoea and jaundice respectively. There is a high mortality in severe acute graft-versus-host disease.
