  • Title: [Allogeneic skin transplantation in chronic graft-versus-host disease following bone marrow transplantation].
    Author: Baumeister RG, Riel KA, Kolb HJ.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1990 Jun; 61(6):438-40. PubMed ID: 2364784.
    Abstract:
    A 20-year old patient with acute myelogenous leukemia was transplanted with allogeneic bone marrow transplantation from his HLA-identical brother. Chronic graft-versus-host disease with ulcerous skin lesions developed at both lower legs. The lesions were extensive and conservative therapy was unsuccessful. Therefore, allogeneic skin transplantation from the marrow donor was performed. At present, four years later, these skin grafts are still vital.
